The Third Revolution follows plain-talking Montana Governor Benjamin Kane as he walks a harrowing tightrope between his conscience and the law. The federal government has just passed the One Nation Act, federalizing all teachers, day-care workers, police and prosecutors, as so-called national agents of social enforcement.
In Montana, statewide outrage at the measure results in the election of a radical legislature that passes a bill nullifying the federal law. This blatantly unconstitutional action precipitates a major confrontation between federal officials and Governor Kane. The popular owner of a local boutique brewpub and a former state legislator, Governor Kane reluctantly signs the nullification bill into law, hoping to shock the federal government into a more reasonable posture. But escalating pressure from Washington, followed by a tragic accident involving American troops at the annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, make it clear that nothing about this episode is going to end reasonably.
Ben Kane and his close-knit group of political cohorts risk all as they attempt to rein in the reactionary legislature, hold the federal government at bay, and maintain the sovereignty of their state. Governor Kane is forced to choose between the country he loves...and his commitment to the founding principles of the country he loves.
The Third Revolution eBook Anthony F Lewis
In an era when TV networks grind out Beltway-worshipping pap like "The West Wing," Anthony F. Lewis has written a novel that convincingly talks about the Real Deal: what liberties Americans have lost and how they might get them back.You might expect lengthy John Galt-like political speeches in a novel like this. There aren't any. You might expect black-and-white good guys and bad guys. Well, there's no question who we're meant to root for in this book, but solutions aren't presented as simple, and Lewis' characters are driven as much by messy circumstances as they are by ideology. The novel's scenario is absolutely credible, its characters are well-drawn, and the suspense is nail-biting.

The Third Revolution eBook Anthony F Lewis Reviews
with the slippery slope of social/fascism upon us in present-day america, anthony lewis has penned a story about how it could all reverse itself and what is out there in "americans" that could be ignited to do just that. It is worth reading, as will be the sequel that is in the works...john kelly
I wanted to love this book, but found it an unsatisfying read. I enjoy and respect libertarian fiction, and respect the author's ideals.
Unfortunately, the book was drawn out and uninvolving. Far too much time was spent with the author showing off arcane and irrelevant expertise, whether on motorcycles or wine or how to professionally light a video shoot (seriously!) Yes, people make the same complaint about the focus on guns in the outstanding Unintended Consequences (John Ross) and Patriots (Jim Rawles), but in those books, there is some pertinence of the technology to the plot. And besides, guns are much more interesting and worth learning about than which wine glass to use.
The first 100 pages were like eating sawdust, without butter. Slow and dull, wondering when we're going to get some PLOT.
If you're looking for a book that provides a fascinating and well-written scenario where a craggy single governor in a mountain west state goes toe-to-toe with the fedgov, employing nukes, then I highly recommend Molon Labe (Boston T. Party).
Authors with libertarian values deserve our support and encouragement, but readers deserve far better than this book, I'm sorry to say.
Mr. Lewis has come up with a winner here - an exciting, engrossing read that does justice to the idea of a principled stand for freedom in the face of an over-reaching, out-of-control central government. There's no preaching, no tiresome political drone - just a story of everyday people who have remembered what liberty is supposed to mean, and recognized those who are trying to take it away. With that recognition comes action, much as it did in 1775. I read the entire book in two sittings, and I'm glad to see that the sequel is already out! The Third Revolution is not just an entertaining story; it can also be a wake-up call for Americans who have become very comfortable in the face of our continued loss of freedom.
The Third Revolution was a spectacular work of fiction. I have always been fascinated with the State of Montana and the picture Mr. Lewis painted of the landscape and the people of the state motivated myself to book tickets to go visit. Since then I have even purchased some property in the state and look forward to moving to the state soon. From what I have read in the travel guides since reading The Third Revolution and the people I have met while visiting the State it is going to be far more freedom and independent minded then in my current state of Kalifornia just as the picture in the book painted. Granted this was a work of fiction but since visiting the book became all the more believable in my mind.
I really enjoyed the story of Ben Kane and his duel with the Federal Government. It was great to see events that are happening all around us woven into a fictionalized story of a group of Citizen's who use the ballot box to stand up and demand their freedom. The character detail is built so strong within the book I walked away from it believing that Ben Kane really could exist. I don't want to ruin the story but if you enjoy Libertarian minded fiction and want to sit back and experience some great political maneuvering I highly recommend this book it had me anxiously awaiting the second book!
I found this on a list of "Libertarian Fiction", this probably should have been "Libertarian Fantasy" >grin<. Lewis has a casual and easy to read style; the story itself seamed to wander about like a herd of buffalo but was a fun read overall.
The tale was tied together by the characters and while they varied from fanciful to over-simplified they did make the whole thing mostly work. I will try some of this authors other works, they make a nice change of pace for me.
The United States is under control of one party. They have everything from the House to the White House and plan to use this power to save Americans from themselves. The One Nation Bill is passed giving the Federal Government complete control of the major functions of the states, including law enforcement and education.
Few people in the middle states like this, but what can they do? They don't have the votes, the money or the numbers to stop the Bill.
So the Third Revolution starts when the Governor of Montana decides he will NOT just stand around and let things happens. He decides to fight it. But while he tries to stay within the system, fighting it within the courts and the back rooms, his principles put fire back into the people of Montana. And before he knows it his ideals of freedom and liberty are being taken seriously, not just by the voters of his own state, but by millions of Americans. He has to pick between his love for his nation and his love for the founding principles that formed it.
A great book. Paced just right, good characters, interesting, realistic and funny all at the same time.
