Currently reading Nevile Shute's "Trustee from the Toolroom", have you ever read it?

Excellent book. Read it recently, one of my favorites.
I have it in e-book format if anyone is interested.
It's long out of print.

Id love it if you could email it to me




"Lenin called them "useful idiots," those people living in
liberal democracies who by giving moral and material support
to a totalitarian ideology in effect were braiding the rope that
would hang them. Why people who enjoyed freedom and prosperity worked
passionately to destroy both is a fascinating question, one still with us
today. Now the useful idiots can be found in the chorus of appeasement,
reflexive anti-Americanism, and sentimental idealism trying to inhibit
the necessary responses to another freedom-hating ideology, radical Islam"
