Anastasia, thank you for calling.  Great to have you on the program today.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  You\u2019re welcome.  So it\u2019s your turn. <\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I just wanted to talk about how you inspired me to love history. I read both of your books, and it was pretty amazing how it was so&#8230; it felt so realistic but yet I still wanted to go back in time.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, that is so sweet.  Anastasia, are your parents liberal Democrats? <\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/rushrevere.com\/index.php\"><img id=\"eZObject_94235\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushRevere2BooksAuthorYear.jpg\"\/><\/a>CALLER:  They\u2019re independent.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  I wondered why you were whispering.  But that\u2019s very sweet of you to say.  I can\u2019t tell you how much it means to me, because you\u2019re 10 and your age group is exactly who those books were written for.  And you have nailed why.  It\u2019s because we take you right to the event via the time travel and you\u2019re part of it, to try to make it exciting and interesting and also truthful.  That\u2019s the real point of the books, because it could be that as you go through school you\u2019re going to hear different versions of history than what you read in my books.  And I want you to know that the books I\u2019ve written and you have read, the depictions of history there, written for your age group, are truthful. <\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s exactly why I did it, is so that you could learn who the people were that made this country possible.  You\u2019re only 10 years old now, and my hope is &#8212; see, I love America and I want everybody to.  I wish everybody did.  It\u2019s a special place.  It\u2019s unique for really positive, good reasons, and I want people to grow up knowing them.  I want people, young people like you to grow up loving this country and understanding why you do. <\/p>\n<p>I want you to grow up understanding why and how this country happened and what it took and how hard it was and how committed to it the people who made it possible were.  Because they were really tough and committed people and they faced hardships that you and I, Anastasia, do not know in our lives. <\/p>\n<p>They faced hardships that you and I will never have.  They believed in it so much that they sacrificed everything that they had to make it happen.  And it\u2019s endured for over 230 years for reasons.  That\u2019s why I\u2019m so moved when somebody your age reads the book and calls and tells me that they got it and they liked it.  You have made my day.  I cannot thank you enough.  Do you have the audio versions of the book, by any chance, or just the actual books themselves? <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.rushimg.com\/cimages\/media\/logos\/2ndbookavailtoday\/1239199-1-eng-GB\/2ndBookAvailToday.jpg\" width=\"585\" height=\"240\" style=\"margin-bottom: -25px\" border=\"0\" usemap=\"#Map\" \/><\/p>\n<map name=\"Map\" id=\"Map\">\n<area shape=\"rect\" coords=\"417,4,577,236\" href=\"http:\/\/twoifbytea.com\/adventures\/index.php\" target=\"_self\" \/>\n<area shape=\"rect\" coords=\"71,145,191,186\" href=\"http:\/\/www.barnesandnoble.com\/w\/untitled-2-to-be-confirmed\/1116394311?ean=9781476755885&amp;amp;itm=1&amp;amp;usri=9781476755885&amp;amp;cm_mmc=AFFILIATES-_-Linkshare-_-PwUJvmDcu1U-_-10:1&amp;amp;r=1,%201\" target=\"_blank\" \/>\n<area shape=\"rect\" coords=\"214,150,325,182\" href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/1476755884?tag=simonsayscom\" target=\"_blank\" \/>\n<area shape=\"rect\" coords=\"41,187,135,231\" href=\"http:\/\/www.indiebound.org\/book\/9781476755885\" target=\"_blank\" \/>\n<area shape=\"rect\" coords=\"135,188,220,232\" href=\"http:\/\/www.booksamillion.com\/p\/Rush-Revere-First-Patriots\/Rush-Limbaugh\/9781476755885?id=6038112652123\" target=\"_blank\" \/>\n<area shape=\"rect\" coords=\"225,189,323,227\" href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/book\/untitled-2\/id686958096?mt=11\" target=\"_blank\" \/><\/map>\n<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Just the actual books themselves.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, I would like to send you the audio version of both.

They\u2019re not abridged.  But it\u2019s a new way to read the books again and listen to them as read by me, the author.  So if you would hang on I\u2019ll need to get an address where I can send those to you after we hang up here.  But you\u2019ve got me kind of, I don\u2019t know, I\u2019m just, I\u2019m kind of nervous talking to you because I can\u2019t tell you how much I appreciate the fact that you liked them.
