(Washington Times) “The Politically Incorrect Guide to the Civil War” may not appear on everyone’s Christmas list, but an effort by the Council [on] American-Islamic Relations to ban the book has met with resistance from the publisher and author.
Regnery Publishing President Marji Ross accused CAIR of an “insidious and dishonest smear campaign” after the liberal advocacy group called on Amazon, Google, and Barnes & Noble to stop carrying certain “pro-Confederate and white supremacist” titles.
“Regnery strenuously objects to the insidious and dishonest smear campaign being waged by CAIR against our author, our book, and millions of Americans,” she said in a statement. “Conflating ‘white supremacy’ with ‘confederate’ is a loathsome and despicable tactic, used to discredit and slander anyone who dares to voice support for the South or the ideals of liberty and self-determination embraced by so many patriots during the Civil War and ever since.”
