About the Book
Mirror to a Nation is about a very wealthy young American, who decides to shock the nation into realizing that it is on a course of self destruction; that the American people are passively marching like cattle into a slaughter house, oblivious to the growth of lethal social problems. It is about a young man who chooses to forgo the pleasures of his immense inheritance and a decade of normal life, to laboriously and single handedly weave a national web of conspiracy.
Would it be possible to secretly build a large underground tunnel complex in a major American city? Would it be possible to kidnap the first lady of the United States? Would a televised discussion of social issues with the first lady from her unknown place of captivity attract the attention of the American public? Would a comprehensive exposure of mortal social issues and accompanying meaningful proposals for change, cause public opinion to coalesce and demand real political transformation? He answered yes to all these questions and proved it.
Is there a way to make American education competitive at all socioeconomic levels? Can the American criminal justice system insure domestic tranquility and provide justice for all? Can the drug abuse epidemic be arrested? Must illegal immigration continue? Do we have to overspend ourselves into national bankruptcy? Is our youth exempt from national service? His ideas were truly revolutionary and he charted a different course for the ship of state to follow.
