My column this week is the traditional William Safire-style "Office Pool 2019" of predictions for the year ahead. Please check the full column out at the New York Sun here and at Newsmax here.
As is also traditional there is a question about books scheduled to come out in the year ahead, which you may pre-order using these links (FutureOfCapitalism, LLC gets a cut). Some of them are by former New York Sun colleagues of mine:
Joseph Sternberg's "The Theft Of A Decade: How The Baby Boomers Stole The Millennials' Economic Future"
Michael R. Gordon's "Degrade And Destroy: The Inside Story Of The War Against The Islamic State"
"The Making Of A Justice: Reflections On My First 94 Years," by John Paul Stevens
"Big Business: A Love Letter To An American Anti-Hero" by Tyler Cowen
"Great Society" by Amity Shlaes
"Bagehot: The Life and Times of the Greatest Victorian" by James Grant
"The Plaza: The Secret Life Of America's Most Famous Hotel" by Julie Satow.
