The Making of a Conservative Environmentalist
by Gordon K. Durnil
Gordon Durnil was the U.S. Chairman of the International Joint Commission during the Bush administration. The IJC is a semi-autonomous international organization composed of representatives from the United States and Canada charged with overseeing the quality of the environment in the Great Lakes region. In the course of his service on the Commission, Mr. Durnil became an avid, active environmentalist. For most of the world, the term "conservative environmentalist" is an oxymoron. In this fascinating account of his conversion to environmentalism, Durnil demonstrates how and why the saving of our environment is fundamentally a conservative issue.

Budapest Exit
by Csaba Teglas
Faced with the Nazi invasion of Hungary during World War II, the Soviet occupation following the Allied victory, and finally with the opportunity to escape the oppressive regime during the Hungarian Revolution of 1956, Csaba Teglas responded with ingenuity and hope. In Budapest Exit: A Memoir of Fascism, Communism, and Freedom he tells the story of his twenty-year quest for freedom. During the war, the dramatic changes that had taken place in his country intensified with the invasion of the Nazis. After the terrifying siege of Budapest the Nazis' defeat should have led to freedom, but for Hungary it meant the brutal occupation by the Soviets. Life in Budapest was difficult, but Teglas rose to meet the challenges presented to him. Teglas protested, sometimes quietly, sometimes more vocally, against the Soviet and communist presence in Hungary. During the Hungarian Revolution of 1956, Teglas became more involved in the opposition to the communists. When it became dear that the revolutionaries were not going to succeed, he knew he had to leave. Teglas recounts his dramatic escape through the heavily guarded Iron Curtain and his subsequent journey to North America, where life as an immigrant presented new challenges.
