Can't find my abridged copy of Decline of the West (http://www.duke.edu/~aparks/Spengler.html). And I want to read it. Yes, there are on-line abridgements, but I can't take reading more than ten or so pages on-line. More than that, and I need a book.

Kind of funny how all of them seem to be hosted on neo-nutzi websites, when Spengler spent the last three or four years of his life under house arrest by the nazis these people so fetishize. And at least one contemporary of Spengler claimed Spengler was about to come out in opposition to the regime at the time of his death, though of that I'm skeptical. viz, Diary of a Man in Despair: A Masterpiece about the Comprehension of Evil (http://www.amazon.com/Diary-Man-Despair-Masterpiece-Comprehension/dp/0715630008), by Friedrich Reck-Malleczewen. A worthwhile read in its own right.

And that one I've read. Not so Spengler's burblings. I think this will be the fourth time I'll give Decline a shot. If whoever stole it returns it.

Spengler would've dug Accept, I think...

My God damn right wing book...

i thought for sure the rest of this title would read..."My God damn right wing book...burnt up in the fire!"

i'm almost disappointed because i think it may have read more funny.|I

Mike, sorry to disappoint you. I'd only heard of him, and that only in the vaguest way, and have never read him.

Hell, I'm an accountant by training. Autodidact is maybe the politest term you could use for someone like me. I know a bit about some strange things, but there're gaps in my knowledge you could drive a tractor-trailer through. Sideways.

me too buddy- all i know is language and music-but i read some celine-and you should read him-he was a nazi but he was very colorful and his stuff is fun and fast moving-he also has erratic punctuation but that has nothing to do with me..
