Have any of you read the book? What was your opinion on the author's thesis and is it worth buying and reading? Is it conservative in focus or what?

It does look like a good book but doubt I’ll buy it...still haven’t gotten around to reading Horse Soldiers yet.

Seems like it leans conservative - I can’t imagine that the economic trajectory of a country is a mystery to any honest observers - independence to comfort to servitude. Repeat.

What fools most people are.

I have read Juggernaut and found that it was very conservative in the sense that the author makes an excellent case against state intervention in the economy. He does try to “see it from both sides” of course, which means that he takes into account the kind of monopoly and exploitation that arose around the close of the economy in 1900. But still, his defense of personal freedom and individual responsibility is perhaps the best I’ve seen.
