There Once Was an Idea Called America
Richard Daniel McCann’s There Once Was an Idea Called America is a forceful examination of what the author sees as the gradual dismantling of the nation’s economic, political, and cultural foundations. McCann’s central concern is that America has drifted away from the principles that once supported its constitutional republic, including national sovereignty, individual liberty, religious faith, strong families, private ownership, and a thriving middle class. Rather than treating the country’s problems as isolated controversies, he presents them as interconnected parts of a larger struggle over what America will become.
The book begins with the economic pressures facing the middle class, tracing the effects of deindustrialization, corporate consolidation, automation, stagnant wages, political neglect, and the movement of jobs overseas. McCann connects economic insecurity to the growing influence of corporations, lobbyists, wealthy donors, and the military-industrial establishment. His discussion of campaign financing, Citizens United, super PACs, dark money, and the revolving door between government and lobbying gives the book one of its strongest through lines. Whether discussing Democratic or Republican administrations, he argues that ordinary citizens increasingly compete against powerful institutions with far greater access to elected officials.
From there, McCann turns to national sovereignty and freedom of expression. He views uncontrolled immigration, international governing bodies, foreign military commitments, and open-border policies as threats to the country’s ability to determine its own future. His chapter on free speech expands the argument into universities, school boards, corporations, government agencies, and social media platforms. The examples involving cancel culture, campus speech restrictions, online censorship, book bans, and political pressure show that his concern isn’t confined to one institution. His writing is direct and urgent, and he makes it clear that protecting disagreeable speech is essential to preserving meaningful debate.
The later chapters focus on journalism, education, religion, crime, gender politics, abortion, and the stability of the American family. McCann believes news organizations have traded impartial reporting for political advocacy, creating a public that no longer trusts the information it receives. He writes with the same intensity about cultural issues, particularly parental authority, Christian faith, public education, and traditional family structures. At times, the rapid movement between subjects and the consistently confrontational language can make the analysis feel more like an extended warning than a measured investigation. Still, the book’s organization, extensive references, historical context, and consistent viewpoint give readers a clear understanding of the author’s position and the values he hopes to defend.
There Once Was an Idea Called America will appeal most to readers concerned about political corruption, globalism, free speech, border security, media bias, family values, and the future of American democracy. It’s particularly suited to conservative readers, independent voters, students of contemporary politics, and anyone interested in arguments for restoring national identity and civic responsibility. As a work of conservative political nonfiction, American political commentary, cultural criticism, and social issues analysis, the book offers a passionate call for citizens to protect constitutional government, rebuild domestic institutions, and take a more active role in shaping the nation’s future.

After finishing book number 56 for the year, I have decided, once again, that it is time for a bit of Bond. Almost all of my copies of the continuation novels of the James Bond series are either tatty second hand copies or American editions that spell words like, honour and colour wrong, so I am buying new copies to replace them as I endeavour to reread the whole series.

Ich möchte dir heute etwas Vorstellen – Kotomori, ein Projekt an das ich seit letztem Jahr arbeite. Die Idee selbst besteht schon einige Zeit länger.
Kotomori ist ein Projekt von und für Bücher-Nerds. Eine Plattform für Lesende und Schreibende die Bock auf den Austausch mit anderen haben, die die selbe Leidenschaft teilen: In Geschichten eintauchen und selbst neue Welten entstehen zu lassen.
Die Idee hinter Kotomori ist die, dass jede Person am Blog und an der Community mitwirken kann. Kotomori soll eine Plattform sein, auf der alle über ihre Gedanken, Leidenschaft, Lieblings Bücher oder auch das Schreiben selbst, schreiben können. Alle sollen grundsätzlich die Möglichkeit haben, auf dem Blog Beiträge zu veröffentlichen und diese mit anderen zu teilen und darüber zu diskutieren.
Gleichzeitig ist Kotomori auch eine Community für Leser:innen und Autor:innen. Eine Community in der es möglich ist mit anderen zu diskutieren, sich auszutauschen, gemeinsam regelmäßig Bücher zusammenzulesen, seine eigene Leseliste zu füllen und Bücher zu bewerten und auch als Autor:in eigene Bücher in die Datenbank einzutragen.
Geplant ist folgendes:
- Regelmäßige Leserunden innerhalb der Community
- Lese- & Schreibherausforderungen
- Eigene Leselisten mit Büchern erstellen
- Eigene Bücher eintragen und bewerben
- FanFiction veröffentlichen
- und mehr ...
Ich hoffe das ich es noch schaffe dieses Wochenende das Projekt online zu stellen.
Ich bin sehr gespannt und freue mich schon sehr auf die Zeit! Freue mich natürlich auch, wenn ihr Lust habt mitzumachen. :)

Bookstores & Love Stories: My Trip to Scotland Inspired by ‘One Day’
At the top of the year, my eldest niece aka Niece invited me to join her on a trip to Scotland.
Dear Reader, I was just as perplexed as you are that my first-generation Haitian-American niece (like me) a) wanted to visit Scotland and b) visit during early Spring, whilst still chilly and rainy. The tropical Caribbean—where her mother was born—is right there! A shorter flight, no less!
Well, the trip was centered around the musical adaptation of the bestselling novel One Day by David Nicholls. Turns out I had watched the Netflix series a couple of years prior. It wasn’t until the credits were rolling that I learned it was based on a book. Had I known, I would’ve read the novel, then jumped into the series to do what we readers do: compare and contrast. Niece also watched the movie starring Anne Hathaway.
Set in Edinburgh, Scotland, One Day revolves around Emma and Dexter (Em and Dex), who meet at a “uni” (university) graduation party in 1988. What’s supposed to be a one-night-stand expands into a decades-long friendship fraught with unspoken, secret feelings.
It’s frustrating and endearing because the feelings are reciprocated. This isn’t a story of unrequited love. Somehow, through his immaturity and womanizing, Emma loves Dexter, and despite his sometimes selfish behavior towards her, she really is the only woman he’s ever loved .
For years, they’re not in the same place in life—geographically, career, relationships, maturity, financially. He’s white; her family is of Indian descent, though in the play she’s depicted by a Black woman. Em and Dex go on vacations together, call, and write letters, a crucial one is never delivered nor read. There’s a feeling of FINALLY! when they become a couple.
Then you realize there’s too much left in the book. Clearly, the coupling is not the typical happily ever after ending. I screamed at the TV watching the series, talked out loud to myself while reading the book, and was grabbed by Niece on my left and Sister on my right in the theater during the musical.
Niece and I knew what was coming. Sister did not.
The play was our second-to-last night in Scotland. It was a wonderful evening. We snapped photos and bought souvenirs in the downstairs lobby of The Royal Lyceum. Niece surprised us with a VIP experience in the theater’s upper room. A reserved bar table awaited us. The bartender served us chilled champagne until it was time to claim our seats—first row of the mezzanine.
Niece, ever the researcher, planner, and fellow book lover, found several bookstores for us to visit while in Scotland. I’m an over-packer and had to be mindful of suitcase space. I still had to buy a bag. In addition to the ONLY FOUR books I bought, I purchased lovely-smelling body butters, a vase from a museum gift shop, funky overalls for The Roots Picnic in Philadelphia in May, mini bottles of whisky for myself and brother, and whatever else escapes me at the moment.
It was late March. We braved chilly winds and rain. I wore leggings under my clothes every day and still never got too hot as we walked around, especially when we bookstore-hopped.
One of the first days, if not the first, we visited Waterstones, a chain bookstore. I purchased Before We Hit the Ground by Selali Fiamanya and a leather bookmark branded with the store name. On a separate day, Aunt-Niece Day, (my sister stayed at the hotel), we visited the combo McNauhtan’s Bookshop & Gallery and Typewronger, where I snagged Redwood Court by DeLana R.A. Dameron. The store owner stamped the inside of my book and gave me an elephant origami.
A short, brisk walk brought us to Topping & Company Booksellers, where I continued my purchases of Black-authored books with Blessings by Chukwuebuka Ibeh and Theft by Abdulrazak Gurnah. I also witnessed a real-life love story in real time.
While browsing on the lower level, I watched an elderly couple enter. They were both stooped over and took small steps. They were also snazzy dressers. The wife declared she’d wait for him downstairs, to which he replied, “You’re not going to come with me?”
The combination of the raspiness of his weathered voice, the longing in his voice, him reaching out to place his hand on hers, her quick and simple “ok,” and them shuffling off together towards the elevator left me teary-eyed with a lump in my throat.
I bet they didn’t squander years like Emma and Dexter did.
I want that elderly couple’s relationship one day.
