Perry Book

[skeptic]

Having just read the entire book, I had to go back and review the comments on the board. Cannot help but wonder how many of the posters have actually read the book. While you may not agree with his contention, or much of the other material, he actually does a pretty fair job with his subject. But most of the comments on the board would indicate that these individuals have done nothing more than read a couple reviews from their favorite bloggers or partisan critics.

 

And he does quote a number of prominent Eagle Scouts throughout, including Dukakis, who one poster listed as someone he should have spoken to.

 

There are some well footnoted points that lend a lot of verity to his premise. Read it; some things will give you pause. Of course, much of it will give those who have little positive to say about BSA more ammunition for their sarcasm and derogatory statements.

Just got back from Borders trying to spend a Christmas gift card. I picked up the Perry book and put it back down. $26 is a bit much. It's 10 bucks cheaper on Amazon.
