- Formal Book Reviews of Defensive
Racism:
Mark Farrell (writer, researcher, and videographer): "...removes the emotion-laden propaganda behind the word...Steele doesn't have an ounce of hate in his body -- just an understanding of how things currently work......an unparalleled wit...you don't have to be a scientist to understand what he has to say...it's written for the average Joe. Steele's book is something America has needed for a long time...(it)will assist in the racial healing of America...If you read just one book this year, let it be Steele's. You won't regret it...The biggest problem with it is that every person in the world doesn't possess a copy of it. And we should work to correct this problem. Immediately. Go out and buy a case of this book, and give a copy to everyone you know." (more) Dr. Ed Fields (Editor/Publisher, The Truth at Last): "Defensive Racism by Edgar J. Steele covers every aspect of the race crisis in America...Mr. Steele is perhaps the most dynamic speaker and writer in the right wing."Don Harkins (Editor, The Idaho Observer): "...extremely engaging, even entertaining...It takes the entire issue of race and all the things we are not supposed to talk about and flops them up on the table...The fact that it is a "fun" read completely took me by surprise...It is liberating to examine all the various components of race, racism, racialism and feel good about oneself for thinking clearly on the issue instead of feeling like your thoughts will make people mad and get you in trouble...a valuable work...it lays bare the entire subject for all to see." (more) Ben Parker (Redneck philosopher and National Vanguard writer): "You are sure to enjoy Edgar Steele's new book, Defensive Racism. His matter-of-fact style is humorous, interesting, and fun to read. Even the in-depth explanation of economics, which some people find hard to get excited about, becomes, in his hands, another fascinating aspect of our present situation...Much of what is so well told in Defensive Racism will be familiar to informed White people, but Mr. Steele's presentation of the material is so first-rate and authoritative it is sure to leave the reader best pleased...Steele sets the record straight on immigration, affirmative action, IQ, Jews, interracial crime, and much, much more. Anyone can write about race issues, but when Edgar Steele does, it is coming from an attorney who has defended racially conscious Whites in court. Everyone who wants to be informed about race relations in America today will treasure his new book. (more) Michael C. Piper (American Free Press correspondent and author of Final Judgment and The High Priests of War): "An eye-opening and honest, no-holds-barred look at race relations in America today...(I)n Defensive Racism, Steele has come forth with a book-length exposition of his philosophy - and one that reflects the thinking of quite a few people in America today...a remarkable tapestry that looks candidly at the reality of the American situation today. As Steele makes so patently and disturbingly clear, the much-discussed subject of 'racism' - however defined, rightly or wrongly - underlies the crisis in America and the world in a fashion that otherwise may not be so readily apparent...Defensive Racism is a book that, unlike many if not most others, will stimulate lively and thought-provoking discussion. And whether you agree or disagree with any or all of what Steele has to say, you'll certainly conclude that this is an author who has an uncanny ability to lay out the bottom line in a folksy, engaging fashion, writing in a friendly, colloquial style even while addressing some 'dangerous' areas of debate...an open-minded reader will find it difficult to discern any venom in Steele's words but will discover that his views constitute a lot of common sense wisdom...Defensive Racism is a book for all those who have an interest in America's future, and that includes people of all races and creeds." (more) "...one of this country's most eloquent voices for a rational approach to the most difficult issues facing America today...should be read by as many Americans—and people worldwide—as possible." (more) Michael J. Polignano (Writer): "...compulsively readable, incisive in its analysis, and deft in its marshalling of factual evidence. But Defensive Racism communicates more than just facts. It also communicates a sense of urgency and the necessity to do something to prepare for America's now-inescapable fate. Defensive Racism is so good, I would recommend it to my own mother." (more) Billy Roper (Chairman, White Revolution): "...one of the best, most effective and evocative writers in the White Nationalist movement today...there need to be books and literature which take the curse off of racism by presenting it in a non-offensive, palatable manner to those who feel instinctively as we do, but who have never had the opportunity to formulate their politically incorrect notions into concrete ideas which can be expressed clearly...you’ll learn everything you need to know about the last century of world history in one chapter, "World War III," more than you would in three or four graduate-level History courses. Steele’s genius lies in his writing style...I got more out of his chapter “Money’s End Game: Depression II” than I ever did from college..." (more) Dr.
Fredrick
Töben Aaron Turpin (the "Militant Libertarian"): "This is a book that everyone should read, regardless of your racial outlook and beliefs...This book is about more than just racism. It's about our nation's current lack of tolerance and suppression of diversity in the name of tolerance and diversity. It's about our nation's teetering on the edge, about to fall into the abyss of empires past, never to return intact. It's about the New World Order and who's really behind it and how it will pan out." (more) Selected reader comments:
"Your
book is painful and scary, but it's like an enema for the Patriotic
Movement: long overdue." -- Ernst
Zundel, 11/26/04 (speaking from the Canadian gulag)
"Comprehensive
enough to awaken anyone who isn't determined to keep their minds closed
to reason." -- David Lane, 11/18/04
(speaking from the American gulag)
"You
gave me a stimulating punch of Anglo-Saxon patriotism."
-- Cdr. Steve Edson, 12/13/04
"I can only recommend the book as the most important that I have read in a very long time." -- Laurie, 11/11/04 "Defensive Racism is a literary educational masterpiece. A hot arrow, a fiery dart, whose target is sure to be squared, bull's-eye and should be read by every free thinking White man, woman and child all across the globe. Indeed destined to be, the cure for blindness." -- Pastor Morris L. Gulett, http://www.churchofthesonsofyhvh.org, 11/4/04 I was expecting a
book which would be both lengthy and difficult to read. Instead,
lawyer Edgar Steele's book "Defensive Racism" is both entertaining
and easy to read...Unlike other books on these topics, Mr. Steele's
writing style is light and entertaining, yet very to the point. I
was surprised to see my teenage daughter reading the book at a friend's
house and complaining because we didn't have a copy so she could finish
reading it. Now that's an endorsement of an engaging writing style!...This
is not a book about racial intolerance but rather a plea for racial
understanding, a realistic look at race and what we need to do to make our
country better. I can see why lawyer Steele was so successful in the
courtroom, he is very understandable and very persuasive. I highly
recommend this book. -- "Marcus Aurelius,"
posted on Amazon.com 10/31/04
"A real
eye opener. As usual, Edgar Steele does his homework and leads us in
the right direction." -- L. Giarratano,
posted on Amazon.com 11/01/04
"I
read the book overnight and could not put it down. I have been taught this
kind of thing all my life by my parents but this is the first time I have
ever seen it in print like this."
-- Heather Collins,
11/1/04
"I have been reading your book, and can hardly put it down...Your summary of the two world wars and the first depression are the best I have read, as you give the reasons behind these events, which have never been very clear until now...You are doing a magnificent service for those of us who are struggling to understand what is happening in this republic." -- Douglas Whiddon, 10/30/04
I
have just finished reading your book. It is excellent...I think
your book is the book for the current times for anyone wanting
enlightenment." -- Kenneth Wade,
10/29/04
"I
just finished your book and as I was on the last page I understood that
what I was reading was non-debatable, not in any rational sense.
Both logically and with a firm sense of feeling right, I
believe I have gained clarity into my own personal place in the larger
scheme of things. Much
more than I expected, or would have asked anyone for."

"It's
grand and everyone in this country ought to read it, that is if they want
this country saved ." --
Hazel Poole, 10/28/04
"...reading 'Defensive Racism' - a masterpiece! A sad, sad thing but a masterpiece nevertheless..." -- D. Jack Smith, 11/27/04 "...not just a dry rehash of genetic racial differences or subversive Jewish influence in America but an entertaining and easy-to-read book about current situations that affect us all." -- Paul Grove, 11/12/04 A Long Overdue Rebuttal Of Marxist Political Correctness...If you've been as bewildered as many people as to why this Nation has gone so far down the tubes in the past forty years or so, this book will open your eyes as to the who, the why, and the where. This book not only makes mincemeat out of the current "politically correct" approach to race relations, but also correctly places the finger squarely on those responsible for the attacks on every traditional American institution from American history to Christmas. Prepare to have the blinders removed when you read this one! -- "Henry Ford 'Dearborn,'" posted on Amazon.com 12/19/04 "I enjoyed it very much. It was quite refreshing to read something that mirrored my experience and reason." -- Joe Bacon, 2/15/05 "The book is well done, a useful weapon for counterpropaganda." -- Harvey Taylor, 2/13/05 "Great Book. God bless you." -- Ed Palubinskas, 2/7/05 "It was worth the money." -- TRM, 1/27/05 More, please, Sir...Edgar Steele has credibility. Period. As the dust jacket says, two types of people will pick up this book: Those who support racism in some form and those who oppose racism in any form... and both will find something here for them. Steele has intelligence, education, experience, and an inclination to argue and win that is so typical of lawyers. He practices before the United States Supreme Court, so he is acknowledged to be competent to be worth reading on controversies. He manages a good case, appeals to his jury where they live, and leaves no question unanswered. "Got your book and loving it." -- James Seumas, 10/28/04 "...Steele has written a book that explains what racism really is, and if it is natural, and what is in store for America. I highly recommend this book. I found his writing style very easy to read and understand, and basically, I believe that he speaks and writes the truth...something not heard in the mainstream media..." -- Bob Stewart, posted on Amazon.com 10/27/04
"(His) best
writing ever...Bold and ultra-controversial..." --

provoking..." --
Michelle,

"Steele writes
with a blowtorch." --
Tony,

"...blasts
preconceptions on both sides of America's racial divide to
smithereens." --
David,

"Wow! What a well-written book. Thought provoking, extremely informative and I loved the way you called a spade a spade." -- Madelyn Burley-Allen, Founder, Dynamics of Human Behavior, 11/29/04 |
