Yup. Read 'em. Multiple times =)

As you can see from the style and ideas above, I was heavily influenced by what John Ringo was writing in The Last Centurion. As a work of fiction, it has plenty of flaws, but as a crash course in sociopolitical reality, you can't get much better than that.

FWIW – Some of this material and some of these ideas are mentioned or leveraged in some of John Ringo's stuff, particularly the Last Centurion.

Also – A lot of Bill Whittle's early essays from "Eject Eject" deal in tribes, and societies of trust. If you hadn't read them, it may be worth your time doing so.
