Book signing in Heber Springs at Kathy’s Book Nook March 13

While on a fall vacation in scenic Virginia, Heber Springs resident, Lee Birkhead, had occasion to visit Monticello, beloved home of Thomas Jefferson.  “I had the awesome privilege of standing in the very spot where Jefferson reportedly stood looking out over his magnificent property, while contemplating the writing of the U.S. Constitution,” relates Birkhead.  It was a sobering experience that further intensified his determination to complete and publish his newly released book, Our Foundation is Crumbling. 
Birkhead, a graduate of Oklahoma State University, an ex-military officer and former small business owner, moved to Arkansas in 2005.  He is a member of First Baptist Church, We the People Tea Party of White and Cleburne County, Cleburne County Newcomers and Volunteers for Meals on Wheels.  He began writing the book in 2008. For over thirty years he has studied and contemplated past and current events and their effect on his beloved country.  He shares his insights and ideas in this thought-provoking text, with the hope of enlightening and challenging his reader to join him in his crusade to regain and uphold our precious freedoms.
Our Foundation is Crumbling is about the abuse of the Constitution by our elected officials, over many years, while we were busy making this nation wealthy and successful.  The reader will be made aware of the continuing loss of morality, values and liberties so often overlooked and taken for granted.
Birkhead approaches his topics from a typical engineering perspective—that of investigating and researching a problem, considering possible solutions and then arriving at a logical, common sense resolution.  Also included is a copy of the U.S. Constitution, the sacred document designed by the founding fathers as the supreme law of the land.  “I am issuing a wake-up call to all fellow citizens to get involved before it is too late”, states Birkhead.  “Together we can reverse any misdirected actions our leaders have taken”.
He invites you to view his website www.apatriotview.com  to see more about the book and to discover the area of participation that best fits your interests and skills.  Heber Springs’ establishment, Kathy’s Book Nook, will host a book signing March 13 from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. to give residents an opportunity to meet and visit with the author.
