America Alone: The End of the World as We Know It (ISBN 0-89526-078-6) is a New York Times bestselling nonfiction book by Mark Steyn, published in 2006. It has been widely praised by conservative commentators, and recommended by George W. Bush.[1]
Christopher Hitchens reviewed the book with praise, and describes it as "an admirably tough-minded book."[2] Hitchens goes on in his review and states:
"Mark Steyn's book is essentially a challenge to the bien-pensants among us: an insistence that we recognize an extraordinary threat and thus the possible need for extraordinary responses. He need not pose as if he were the only one with the courage to think in this way."
The paperback edition (ISBN 1596985275), released in April 2008 with a new introduction, is labeled "Soon to Be Banned in Canada", reflecting the result that Steyn then anticipated from the Canadian Islamic Congress human rights complaint against Maclean's Magazine. He faced in these cases before the Canadian Human Rights Commission and the Human Rights Commissions of Alberta and British Columbia.[citation needed]
America Alone covers topics surrounding the global war on terror and centers on issues of demographics in Muslim and non-Muslim populations.
