<description><![CDATA[There are books that fill your mind like a fine multi-course dinner, to be savored, digested slowly, and remembered fondly. Mark Levin's Liberty and Tyranny was one of these books. And then there are books that expand your mind, like a fantasy feast so extraordinary that its sweet, succulent tastes seem surreal, never to be forgotten.]]></description>
