Publisher's summary

Instant New York Times Bestseller
America was built on nine distinct virtues which shaped the character of our nation and made it great. Grit, manliness, individualism, merit, profit and providence, dominion over our environment, thrift, and above all pride in our country—these qualities define us, and are the reason that hundreds of millions of people worldwide look to America for hope, inspiration, and opportunity.

But it's precisely these virtues that now are under attack by the radical Left of Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders, and their followers. America as we know it is eroding before our eyes and becoming what Fox News Channel personality and co-host of "The Five" Eric Bolling calls a "politically correct nanny state." The rewards for individual achievement and hard work, our basic constitutional rights, religious faith, national identity, and capitalism itself, are being replaced by a dangerous socialistic ideology that is the polar opposite of what our Founding Fathers intended America to be. It's time for us to wake up and heed the clear-cut warning signs that America is heading in the wrong direction--before we're too far gone. Eric Bolling knows firsthand what makes America great. Raised in a struggling blue-collar family in Chicago, his parents showed him that hard work and firm values can get you far in life. Those values drove him as a young baseball player to being drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates, then success as a New York Mercantile Exchange trader, and now his daily role on Fox News Channel. A celebration of America that is informed by Bolling's personal story, Wake Up America is a much-needed call to arms for America's citizens to preserve and protect our country's present and future.

Such a great book!

An awesome perspective shared by many including myself. We need more Americans to read this book! The first chapter is a terrifying prediction that will hopefully be avoided now with Trump. So glad it's read by Bolling himself.

Outstanding & a must-read for all students attending school in the USA

As a student attending university, I found many points related to academia to be eye-opening & undeniably true. Bolling gives a personal touch to a very wide-spread problem that exists in America today. Despite being a little obviously right-winged, he gives accurate information on what political figures are feeding the people of my generation. If suggested this book to many of my friends, as I know that we are all so influential in our years in college. This book has made me think about our roots as a nation, & is a must-read before November rolls around.

Nice read

Excellent story and superb explainations of what made America great and how to get it back on track. Should be mandatory reading for all of Americas youth and a refresher for us older folks!

Articulate and Truthful

E. Bolling simply recognizes, and eloquently states, those qualities which once made America great and can again, if they are recognized and held by our next generation

What did you like best about this story?

This is the story of one man's success and his warning that we, as Americans, need to be vigilant to the things that make America and Americans great. Bolling offers us the keys to success...if we're only willing to use them.

Any additional comments?

This should be required reading before you cast a vote in November 2016.

Wake Up America

I found this book to be spot on in eloquently illustrating the character vales that make The United States the democracy it is today! I enjoyed Eric's history lessons and personal stories to illustrate how & why we as Americans can never loose our strong core values. The beginning of the book is bone chilling but sadly true if US citizens don't wake up and take our country back!
