Civilization’s one paramount achievement is the Free Society. Everything we call modern is due to the creativity and energy unleashed by liberty. The discoveries of science and the wonders of its practical application are rooted in freedom. The wealth produced by industrialization and the human rights made possible with democracy are its daughters. Nothing in humanity’s last 5,000 years compares to this seminal development. Yet it is today under siege.Author Mike Schober offers his political insights in his book, The Accidental Free Society.Mike leads readers along a shocking journey through the development of power in government, from the first rulers in Ancient Egypt to today’s political leaders and dignitaries. From the Scorpion King to Stalin and Mao, Mike unveils to readers people’s love of the dictator and their pursuit of power.Coupled with this discussion of dictatorship, Mike also analyzes the pursuit of freedom and the establishment of the free society in Britain, America, and elsewhere. What circumstances made democracy possible in a world filled with dictatorships? The Accidental Free Society provides the answer.The Accidental Free Society is a worthy examination of the historical direction the world has taken over the centuries, in hopes to educate readers on what needs to be done today to ensure democracy and human rights are secure for future generations.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------For the eBook check out Amazon or Barnes and Noble-Only $4.99 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
