About the Book

In June of 2011, Action Comics (DC) released Superman #900, in which Superman renounces his American citizenship to be a member of a 'global' community. In doing so, Superman forgot the reasons why truth, justice and "The American Way" are actually the most important things that he represents. Superman has been an icon for adult and kids alike for over 70 years, -- how the character views the world as well as American values is a part of the makeup of our national history. "The American Way: Why Superman Got It Wrong" written by author Thomas Purcell, describes in detail how American Exceptionalism was a hard won process; and not something we were born with in our blood or our DNA. The path from a small group of stalwart farmers fleeing the tyranny of religious oppression and heavy taxation to that of the most powerful and wealthy nation in the history of mankind was remarkably swift compared to the previous civilizations of Rome, Egypt, and the European great powers of Edwardian England and Napoleonic France. How America got there is a matter of historical record, but today the world is seeking America to be more like them-- socialized and stagnant with planned economies and limited freedoms. Through Progressive politics America is being transformed into the nations that they sought to leave behind over 200 years ago. By extending its entitlement programs, reinventing its national heritage and bastions of capitalistic pride and power, America is slowly being weakened from within in order to bring America to its knees and down to the level of leftist regimes around the world, corrupt and with limited freedoms. Author Thomas Purcell explores the reason why in "The American Way" that the reverse should be true-- that the rest of the world should be striving to be more like America, not the other way around. He explains pivotal points in American history when the American people stood fast to their heritage of self sufficiency, rugged individualism and self-reliance and as a result were stronger for it. Although Kal-El the Kryptonian Superman may have forgotten his childhood roots, "The American Way" explains why Clark Kent, a farmer from Smallville never would have abandoned the Midwest ethics that had served him so well as a emblem of "The American Way" to the rest of the world.

About the Author: Tom was born in Yonkers, NY and in 1968 was the youngest member of Mensa in the country at that time- and is to date, the highest tested individual in Mensa at that age. Educated at the University of California, Tom moved to Arizona after college in 1994, and went into the insurance business. After being a top agent for NY Life Insurance, he decided to become an independent broker in 2005 (Lotusbenefits.com) and is now a successful enterpreneur and author of the column 'Conservative Issues from the Desert'. He calls Glendale, AZ his home, where he does volunteer work for conservative issues around the state. Conservative, funny and a candidly frank speaker, Tom is available for consultation and speaking engagements on subjects from politics to marketing. His last book, "The Return of the Kings", spent two weeks on the Amazon Best Seller List, and his newest book "The American Way: Why Superman Got it Wrong" will be available on Amazon and Kindle in August 2011. You can read more of his musings and articles at www.thomas-purcell.com, as well as excerpts from his novel, where he welcomes comments, discussion and offers free subscriptions.
