Christopher Dalton: This is one of the single most important books the “uninitiated” can read when embarking on their journey. Highly recommended and readers should then venture into works from E. Michael Jones, Jared Taylor, and Kevin MacDonald.

Ross Mackenzie: By far the best work describing and analysing the fall of Western civilisation. Patrick Buchanan's "The Death of the West" is a brave but extremely important book on the brave new world in which we live. If there was ever a book that analysed the new world we live in of the 21st century it is this one, Patrick Buchanan investigates the routes of the cultural revolution from the 1960's and before and what impact it has had on society. If our cultural elites had the power, this book would no doubt be censored as it offers an alternative view of a society based on the Christian tradition of old Europe and American that the cultural revolution has overthrown. For anyone - especially conservatives and traditionalists - wanting to understand the cultural revolution and the new political issues of today, the Death of the West is compulsory reading.

Aaron Ison: This is a quite remarkable book, albeit slightly dated. However that takes nothing away from Buchanan’s core points, in fact the passage of time makes his arguments more urgent. At the time of writing he also foresaw some of the difficulties Europe, or to be more precise, the EU, are undergoing. This is in many respects an American version of Peter Hitchens “The Abolition of Britain”. As Buchanan is an American politician, it is obviously tilted to favour an American readership. Buchanan echoes Hitchens strong warnings and strident analysis of where America and other western nations are and how we got here. Like Hitchens, his prose style is direct and forceful, but where he diverges from Hitchens is that he believes the west can avoid the fate he sees waiting and he offers a range of ideas to avoid the cultural collapse ahead, many quite straightforward. Hitchens by contrast, seems to be more resigned to the cultural revolution and essentially believes that conservatives have lost. Approaching this book as I did from a socially conservative viewpoint I agreed with Buchanan’s arguments and have no hesitation in recommending it to like minded people. “Death of the West”...

Filip Stojak: Though now more than a decade old, it re-emerges with great relevancy in the wake of the Syrian refugee crisis and rising tensions in the Middle-East.
The title is to be understood literally: declining birth rates and mass immigration in the US and Europe threaten to overwhelm native populations and extinguish their cultural identity. Different to earlier waves of immigration, the author argues, these people often don't share our Western values and their allegiances lie with countries we could be at war with. And as societies in Europe grow older, the European welfare-state can only be sustained through mass immigration, for many Europeans not only stopped reproducing, but revel in their demise, by celebrating being childless and having double income.

Buchanan identifies Socialism as the root cause of the Western decline. As he astutely observes how, come 1989, world-wide Communism has failed and why, he further branches out into the tenets of its successor and how it managed to prevail where the progenitor didn't ' by changing the culture from within. He goes into great detail how Globalism, Secularism, Feminism, and Gay Rights Activism often hide behind reason and just...

Fons Jena: I'm deeply worried about the future of our western societies so I ordered this book to read and now more about it. I knew it was written by an American but the problems he talks about is truly for every western country the same and he really does a good job to talk about the whole west, not only America. That is why I loved it. He talks about problems many people think about and would like to share but somehow it is still a taboo (here in Belgium anyway, if you are against multiculturalism you are an enemy of the state). By reading this it made me feel better. There are other people around with the same thoughts. I highlighted many parts and expressions because they sounded so well.
It is frightening and not good for the moral if you realise the state in which we are. We are getting closer and closer to extiction and still people don't get it. I am sure this books is a helping hand. I don't like the religious side of his reasoning but I guess perfect people do not exist. He also seems to encourage larger families in the west, which I think is a bad road too but for all other things is is damn right.

Some cool expressions in this book:
'There is no greater sorrow on...

Celeborn: After ploughing through 336 customer reviews, I find myself deeply saddened. The proof is right here that at least one of Buchanan's theses is correct. We are two nations. It was obvious to some of us when we saw the results of the 2000 election. America is split down the middle, and Pat Buchanan represents one half, Bill Clinton the other half. There can be no middle ground, precisely for the reasons he gives. We are in the midst of a civil war, a cold war; it has been called "the culture war." It has also been said that it is a war for the soul of America. Nowhere have I seen that thesis born out as much as in these reviews.
I am a retired teacher of history and have been a researcher all of my adult life. It was interesting to me that the positive reviews all claimed that Buchanan was telling the truth, and his documentation was superb. The negative reviews contained either a claim that it was badly written and inaccurate (no examples were provided) or simply expressed feelings of disgust and anger. One person called attention to Santayana's paraphrase of Thucydides, "Those who refuse to learn from History are condemned to repeat it." The positive reviewers often suggested...

USAF Veteran: Unlike the majority of political books, this one reads well. Many political books are difficult to get through and often become repetitive after the first 20 pages. Once in a while, a political book transcends the genre. This book may be one of those.
First of all, it is a conservative book that uses a tone of all-out-warfare against the Marxist and Socialist left. It is actually refreshing to have a political author say what he means and mean what he says. While those on the left of the political spectrum will find the underlying tone of the book offensive, it is still worth while to read just for the statistics on immigration and also the history of the left's "long march" through western cultural institutions. To a conservative, this book will be disquieting because it suggests that in spite of any political tactic, the sheer demographics of the current immigrants will overwhelm their cherished way of life.
Secondly, the most original aspects of this book are the compilation of statistics and trends of immigration, and the history of the marxist, socialist attack on western culture. His immigration statistics and projections of trends are must reading for anyone, left or...
