W. Crocker III exposes-in brawling, rambunctious style-how the British Empire was actually one of the greatest establishers and defenders of freedom in history.In this new PI Guide listeners will discover:-How, far from being anti-imperialists, America's colonists were more British than the British-demanding their rights as Englishmen and envisioning a continent-wide empire (a word the Founders used with approval)-How Gandhi praised the British Empire for what it had done for India-How the British Empire handled today's troubled hot spots-like Africa, Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, and Pakistan-What the world would be like if the British Empire were still governing a quarter of the globe-hint: everyone would be a lot better offSo strap on your pith helmet for a rollicking ride through some of history's most colorful events.
