By Liz Truss

Can the West Be Saved? Liz Truss, the former Conservative prime minister of Great Britain, fears that’s an open question.

During her ten years at the highest levels of the British government, she often found that she was the only conservative in the room. She witnessed, first-hand, the machinations of the global left, who would like nothing more than to impose corporate state–socialism on the world.

Freedom is at risk, she warns, and the Conservative Party in Britain—and the Republican Party in the United States—urgently need to shape up and defend it.

The problem? Conservatives have accepted too many of the left’s talking points, allowing the left to set the political agenda and capitulating whenever the left has sought to impose bigger government and curtail individual freedoms.

The authoritarian excesses during the Covid-19 lockdowns should have been a stark warning. They were precursors of things to come if conservatives continue to waffle on principle and surrender on policy, thereby failing the electorate.

In Ten Years to Save the West, Liz Truss reveals:

  • Why socialism—despite its uninterrupted record of failure—remains popular, both with global elites and with the next generation
  • The clear and present danger of the ever-expanding “administrative state”
  • Why we cannot ignore the threat of an aggressive China
  • Why Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher should remain the guiding lights for conservatives on both sides of the Atlantic

Urgent, detailed, and full of insights gleaned from the highest levels of politics, Liz Truss’s warning to the West cannot be ignored. Hardback, 320 pages.

Reviews:

“Anyone paying attention knows that we are in the midst of an existential fight for our values and way of life. Liz Truss has been on the front lines of that fight, standing firm against dictators abroad and woke establishment tyranny at home. The odds are stacked against us, but Truss knows what’s worth fighting for, and she reminds us in this remarkable book.”
—Ted Cruz, United States Senator, bestselling author of One Vote, Justice Corrupted, and Unwoke: How to Defeat Cultural Marxism in America

“Liz Truss is right about one big thing—the old establishment economic models are failing. That’s bad news for the entire Western world. And she is right that the last thing any of us now needs is more socialism, more taxes, and more regulation. We need to reject that tiresome refrain of the Global Left and instead pursue an agenda that unleashes enterprise and boosts economic growth. “I commend this invigorating tract!”
—Boris Johnson, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, 2019–2022

“By the time former heads of government get around to writing their memoirs, they usually look exclusively backward, focused only on legacy. This is not the case with former prime minister Liz Truss, and we are very fortunate that this is so. Truss is a true movement conservative who has served at the highest levels on the world stage, and in Ten Years to Save the West she diagnoses clearly and vividly the problems she found there. Western conservatism is under attack from inside and out, and this book is required reading for those all over the world who want to defend it. Liz Truss will be a leader in this fight for years to come, and her book pulls no punches in describing the stakes of today and the challenges of tomorrow.”
—Mike Lee, United States Senator

“Liz Truss is that rare figure in the political arena today—a genuine leader of principle and conviction, who is willing to stand up and fight for policies that actually advance freedom and defend national sovereignty and self-determination. Ten Years to Save the West is vital and urgent reading for policymakers on both sides of the Atlantic. The West faces an era of dangerous, even irreversible decline unless we are willing to take action now to defend the very ideals that have driven its greatness. Like Margaret Thatcher before her, Liz is a true friend of the American people, and her spirited message in this book should be heeded on Capitol Hill and in the White House.”
—Kevin Roberts, president of The Heritage Foundation

“Agree or disagree with Liz’s politics, she asks the right questions with an intellectual boldness rarely seen in modern politics. This book is a call to action against a resurgent authoritarian axis threatening freedom around the world and a reminder to keep faith with the values that have led to the greatest rise in prosperity in human history.”
—Garry Kasparov, World Chess Grand Master and political activist

“There are those who watch and those who do. Those who commentate and those who get their hands dirty. The cold and timid critics, and those actually in the arena. Liz Truss was in the fiercest arena of all, fighting for free-market principles against entrenched interests, fashionable pundits, and hostile officials. In the end, her opponents got the better of her. Now she has had a year to mull over what went wrong, and what conservatives need to do differently. So when she, of all people, tells us how the West can overcome its enemies, foreign and domestic, we should listen.”
—Daniel Hannan, Conservative member of the House of Lords and former Member of the European Parliament
