The new issue of the University Bookman is on its way. Featuring a special section on the humane economy, the issue includes reviews of books on agrarianism, Wendell Berry, Tocqueville, the commercial society, and other subjects. As a preview, here is Tracy Lee Simmons’s essay honoring the critic and essayist Jacques Barzun, who turns 100 this November 30. We encourage you to subscribe here, because you won’t want to miss this issue!
"Ferenc Hörcher and Dan Pitt... seem timed to match this shift in popular discourse. Intellectual Conservatism offers a history of English political ideas to a new and motivated audience. Limiting focus on Britain paradoxically enhances the book’s usefulness in other countries."
I am most grateful for a perceptive and cogent review of Intellectual Conservatism: From Burke to Scruton by @shawn_whatley via @ubookman.
