  • Trojan West: The Left's strategy to destroy Western Civilization

    Mark Alexander

    eBook
    "My people perish because of their ignorance." -Hosea 4:6What does the Protestant Reformation, the Catholic Church, the Islamists, the Zionists and the Communists all have in common? Their blood thirst to destroying Christian culture and civilization in the West. The purpose of this book is to provide new historical evidence which traces the current Trojan Horse of Islam; enabled by Leftist governments across the West, back to the Protestant Reformation and the Catholic Church corruption. The reformation brought new advancements in science and political theory which eventually led us into the modern world. The Left's grand strategy of borderless nations is the death of Western Nation States and a renewed political model will awaken in the aches in which there is no room for religion, race, gender or nationality. A New World Order is upon us, and the world will never be the same again. We are on the cusp of a New World Order that will take our rights and our freedoms. Alexander's book highlights the greatest and most immediate national security threats posed to America and Europe. It identifies where the West has gone wrong collectively as a civilization historically, while addressing the current Islamic threat that is enabled by the Left. The study is mainly focused on the clash of civilizations from a fresh and new perspective. When Alexander set out to understand the threat against Western Civilization, it was not only an extensive study on the current threat of Islamic terrorism, and it’s many fundamentalist groups that have declared war upon the West, but a study that goes further, in trying to understand how the threat reached Western shores in the first place historically. Alexander offers solutions, and makes the case for Middle Eastern Christians as a people that originally belonged to Western Civilization and therefore make the best immigrants to solve Europe's population shortage crises, while exposing the Left's cultural suicidal agenda.

  • Bright Lights, No City: An African Adventure on Bad Roads With a Brother and a Very Weird Business Plan

    Max Alexander

    eBook
    The hilarious story of two brothers, a truckload of batteries, and a brilliant plan to bring light--and new business opportunities--to Ghana.At age 47, Whit Alexander, the American co-founder of the Cranium board game, decided to start a new business selling affordable goods and services to low-income villagers in Ghana, West Africa. His brother Max, a journalist, came along to tell the story. Neither of them could have anticipated just how much of an adventure they’d find there.In Ghana, Whit's initial goal is to market a high quality rechargeable AA battery that off-grid villagers could use to power their flashlights and radios, as well as to charge their cell phones. If successful, he planned to grow a larger for-profit business based on those batteries--creating a trusted African brand that would provide life-enhancing products, services, and jobs, without relying on charity.Ghana, however, presents extraordinary challenges, and the brothers wage daily battles against deadly insects, insane driving conditions, unspeakable food, voodoo priests, corrupt officials, counterfeiters, and ethnic rivalries on their way to success. From signing up customers who earn a few dollars a month at most to training employees with no Western-style work experience, the brothers quickly learn that starting a business in Africa requires single-minded focus, a sense of humor, and a lot of patience.Along the way, Whit and Max relive their own childhood, bickering across the African bush and learning a great deal about Africans as well as themselves. Irreverent, hilarious, and ultimately inspiring, Bright Lights, No City challenges accepted notions of charity, shows the power of broadening your horizons, and suggests that there is hope and opportunity in Africa.Praise for Bright Lights, No City:"An affectionate, good-humored and finally inspiring account of one American's determination to make good things happen."--Kate Braestrup, New York Times bestselling author of Here If You Need Me"My boss, Bill Gates, coined the phrase 'creative capitalism' to encourage the use of market forces to address the needs of the poor. But my friend, Whit Alexander, moved creative capitalism from ideas to bold practice. Bright Lights, No City will scratch your travel bug, tickle your business brain, and touch your heart."--Patty Stonesifer, former CEO of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation"I thoroughly enjoyed this adventure, which helps to prove that what much of the developing world needs is a hand up, not a hand out." --John Wood, founder of Room to Read and author of Leaving Microsoft to Change the World"I loved, loved, loved Bright Lights, No City. A tour de force! Bravo. It's perceptive, informative, thoughtful, engaging, funny."--Carey Winfrey, editor emeritus, Smithsonian magazine and former Africa correspondent, New York Times"Max Alexander has woven a compassionate and oft-times hilarious tale of the Brothers Alexander's attempt to save the world, one rechargeable battery at a time.
