How To Be Right

About this ebook

As a journalist for the Sunday Telegraph and The Spectator, James Delingpole has expressed his thoughts - articulately and amusingly - on everything from politics to popular music, from school sports days to spliffs. In this A-Z of brief essays he turns his lively mind to modern society gone mad. Can't understand what's wrong with much-loved feet and inches? Don't believe the global-warming hype? Wondering whatever happened to good, old-fashioned universities? Pouring scorn on the state of Britain after ten years under Brown and Blair, HOW TO BE RIGHT couldn't have come along at a more appropriate time. Prepare to foam and splutter, and to be seriously entertained.

Ratings and reviews

Very strange man, very strange book. The book makes very little sense and is not at all well written (and putting the author's own former employer on the cover as the only endorsement should be a tell as to the corruption endorsed by this book) The book comes up with completely imaginary problems and therefore its solutions are not worth the ink. The book is a paranoid, nasty little fantasy and seems to have an utterly delusional perspective. A terrible book, incredibly pointless.

About the author

James Delingpole was born in the Midlands, lives in London and rants on rock, politics, TV, books, food and culture for newspapers and magazines including the Spectator, the Sunday Telegraph and the Daily Mail. His main ambitions are to abolish windfarms, somehow find enough money to educate his children privately, bring about world peace, and go back in time and win a DSO commanding a battalion on D-Day.
