Known as the "only living Father of Confederation" in his lifetime, Joey Smallwood was an entertaining, crafty, and controversial politician in Canada for decades. Born in Gambo, Newfoundland, Joseph ("Joey") Smallwood (1900–1991) spent his life championing the worth and potential of his native province. Although he was a successful journalist and radio personality, Smallwood is best known for his role in bringing Newfoundland into Confederation with Canada in 1949, believing that such an action would secure an average standard of living for Newfoundlanders. He was rightfully dubbed the "only living Father of Confederation" in his lifetime and was premier of the province for twenty-three years. During much of the last part of the twentieth century, Smallwood remained a prominent player in the story of Newfoundland and Labrador’s growth as a province. Later in life he put himself in debt in order to complete his Encyclopedia of Newfoundland and Labrador, the only project of its kind in Canada up to that point. In Joey Smallwood: Schemer and Dreamer, Ray Argyle reexamines the life of this incredible figure in light of Newfoundland’s progress in recent years, and measures his vision against its new position as a province of prosperity rather than poverty.

Dave Dalton is determined to undo the socialistic agenda of the Obama administration. As head of the Republican Party, his number one 'undo' goal is the newly passed health care bill. When the predicted rationing starts to take effect, Dave knows he can no longer just sit back and accept the direction in which America is headed. With his own life in jeopardy due to a medical condition, Dave has to fight back, or else. He is determined to do a lot more than just fight. Eventually, he embarks on a mission to lead the GOP back into the majority position in Congress and the White House, as Undo becomes a nationwide campaign battle cry. UNDO is filled with analysis and criticism of the current social, economic, and political issues of our time, and how important it has become to 'get it right' in the voting booth. Americans do not want to surrender the personal freedoms they still have. UNDO provides a game plan that supports putting this great country back on a road that guarantees those freedoms continue. If you are a Baby Boomer, with an allegiance to the GOP or the Tea Party, then this book is your blueprint to unity and the defeat of socialism in this country.
