The Builder's Stone.

I’m delighted to let you know that my new book has been published this week by Wicked Son in America. Its title is The Builder’s Stone: How Jews and Christians Built the West – and Why Only They Can Save It.

It argues that the west is at a critical inflection point. With Donald Trump entering the White House for the second time, a new era is about to unfold. The challenges, however, are far deeper than many appreciate. For the failure by the west to choose civilisation over barbarism following the October 7 pogrom in Israel illustrates the decadence and cultural death-wish in the so-called civilised world, and its surrender to the Islamists gathering strength to conquer it.

The book puts forward a ten-point programme for a counter-cultural resistance movement, an alliance of all who want western civilisation to survive and which would reassert its foundational values.

This alliance must be drawn from all cultures and groups. However, if the west is to save itself it must listen to the Jewish people it has so frighteningly abandoned — whose unique selling point, after all, is cultural survival, and whose ideas and moral precepts lie at the core of Christianity and of western civilisation itself. While Israel will survive and thrive, the west is doomed unless it chooses to reaffirm its Jewish roots rather than destroy them.

You can buy a copy of the book on amazon.com here and on amazon.co.uk here.

Here’s a sneak preview in the chapter below, which I’m providing exclusively for my paying subscribers.

Enjoy!

The West is poised at a momentous and fateful juncture. I have written for many years about the onslaught being mounted against Western society by its enemies, both within and without.

I have never felt such a strong sense of living at a key turning point in the history of civilisation itself—until now...
