Director's Bulletin
Thursday the 10th May 2011
Dear Harold,
Several things to report.
1. Trouble in the Libertarian Alliance.
Following our President's resignation the other day, I sent out a news
release filled with lush mutual flattery and with promises of future
glory. But this will never do. The truth is that, both morally and
financially, the Libertarian Alliance has been severely damaged. I have no
doubt that I can repair this damage. Those who have caused it are persons
of no long term importance, and their attacks will, in due course fade
into obscurity. Even so, I do feel it is my duty, as Director of the
Libertarian Alliance, to give the plainest and most truthful account that
I can manage of what has happened..

2. Of course, the work of the Libertarian Alliance goes on regardless of
these occasional difficulties. Here are some of our latest publications:
Here is a radio debate I did yesterday on BBC Radio Leeds about the Myth
of Global Warming. I start several minutes into the recording - greenies
usually get first word on the Beeb, and often last words too. I hope you
will agree that I did the greenie over:

Here is an article that I wrote last month not for the LA but for VDare.
It is a very skilfully edited version of my original, and has been
improved in many respects. You may not be interested in my insistence that
the British National Party has been denied what ought to be unquestioned
rights to freedom of speech and of association. If so, I commend the last
two thirds of the article, in which I discuss the nature of the British -
and perhaps the American - ruling class:

Here is Professor John Kersey on the Freeman of the Land movement. When we
published this last month, I thought it was an outstandingly good piece of
writing. Having followed the comments on our blog, I now realise that it
is perhaps our most significant publication of the past year. The
Libertarian Alliance is fundamentally about publishing scholarly and
original essays. If we can maintain this standard of publication, we may
expect a still better future than our past has been:

3. The Churchill Memorandum
My new novel, The Churchill Memorandum, has proved so controversial that
merely giving its title and quoting from its back cover seem to have
driven several people into a frenzy. I do invite you, therefore, to buy
the book and read it for yourself. If you live outside the United Kingdom,
you may prefer to order copies from Lulu. These should arrive within three
days:

This and other TinyURL addresses are given only because the real ones are
so long, they would come through broken.
Or you can buy copies directly from me:

I now have a stock of copies. I will sign every copy that you buy direct.
If you buy ten copies or more, I undertake to procure for you a signed
paperback copy of Mr Blake's critically-acclaimed and internationally
best-selling Blood of Alexandria.
Or you can buy a Kindle edition here:

4. Richard Blake
Mr Blake's critically-acclaimed and internationally best-selling Blood of
Alexandria comes out in paperback next week. Hodder & Stoughton, I am
told, has already had to reprint this, the pressure of demand was so
great. You can buy copies here from Amazon for the special price of only
£3.49:

As well as buying many, many copies, you might also care to move copies in
whatever bookshop you visit into more prominent locations. Well, you might
- but Mr Blake has begged me not to ask such of you. He is a modest man,
and would be horrified if he knew that lesser, though temporarily more
famous, novelists were to be unfairly displaced from the positions given
them by a degraded and tasteless public.
Oh, and I should add that this novel has now been bought by Slovart for
translation into Slovak. Lucky Slovaks, would you not agree?
His newest novel, Sword of Damascus, will come out in June, and will be
even more critically-acclaimed and internationally best-selling than all
the others. I am told that the people at Hodder & Stoughton were surprised
by its ending and quite overcome by its brilliance. You will agree that I
have no particular axe to grind if I call this the greatest historical
novel in the English - or, indeed, any other - language. You can verify
this for yourselves if you pre-order - many - copies here from Amazon:

Love to all - even to those who might not lately have deserved it!

What would England and the world have been like in 1959 if there had been
no Second World War? For one possible answer, read Sean Gabb's new novel
"The Churchill Memorandum". If you like Bulldog Drummond and Biggles and
the early James Bond, this will be right up your street:

original is just too long for a sig file.
