Print: $16.95 Download: $8.00 This collection of letters includes Kathi's correspondence with family, friends, politicians and others, and expresses her views on life from the late 1990's and onwards.
She is particularly concerned with the declining standards of school education, the move from a policy of assimilation and integration of migrants to that of multiculturalism, and the unscientific and manipulative spread of politically-motivated environmentalism around the world.
She believes that the West is in decline, and that unless we are very careful, we risk losing our high standard of living, our democracy and freedom, our productive, free-enterprise economy, and our prominent position in world affairs.
Kathi regards herself as an unorthodox conservative, and believes that most readers will find common ground with many of the opinions expressed in the book.
