Oh, that was a different literary scammer.

Besides Ed, just ask frey's publisher. Their take on it
is, well it doesn't matter that he was a liar and made
most of the stuff up for his book, and labeled it "non-fiction."

The aim of untold millions is to be free to do exactly as they choose
and for someone else to pay when things go wrong.

In the past few decades, a peculiar and distinctive psychology
has emerged in England. Gone are the civility, sturdy independence,
and admirable stoicism that carried the English through the war years
.. It has been replaced by a constant whine of excuses, complaints,
and special pleading. The collapse of the British character has been
as swift and complete as the collapse of British power.
