Reviewing Books that Build Culture
Here Comes Everybody: A New Survey of American Catholicism
“…historian Christopher Shannon… attemts[s] to tell the story of Catholic life in North America over the last five centuries in little more than five hundred pages.”
The War for the Second Age
“At its core… Sibley’s volume is the story of a Fall, and as such gives readers unparalleled insight into the moral underpinnings of Tolkien’s world.”
The Founders and the Constitution on Religious Liberty
“In short, without freedom of association, there can be no effective right to religious liberty in the common sense meaning of that term…”
Pat Buchanan and an America First Foreign Policy
“…Buchanan was right more often than wrong. His weekly literary pugilism will be missed as he retires his syndicated column.”
The Electoral Triumph of the New Deal
“One of the strengths of Pietrusza’s writing is that his narrative tells a story that brings to life the individuals, issues, and events that shaped the 1936 campaign. “
Ever Ancient, Ever New
Scott D. Moringiello reviews The New Apologetics: Defending the Faith in a Post-Christian Era.
Why America’s Foreign Policy Needs John Quincy Adams
“Much of the book finds Codevilla channeling Adams in order to determine just what might constitute an interest-based foreign policy for the United States in the twenty-first century.”
The Celebrity-Industrial Complex
“Beaty points to a widespread spiritual hunger, a desire for intimacy and connection to something larger… In the absence of deep attachments to the real people around you, celebrity provides the façade of intimacy.
The Death and Life of Jane Jacobs’s Hometown
“Jane Jacobs is arguably not the main “character” of the book, however. It is Scranton itself, whose struggle to develop and survive in an ever-changing global economy makes it emblematic of American economic history.”
