Annette Kirk and several friends and Wilbur Fellows traveled in October to Saint Andrews, Scotland, as part of the commemoration of the 60th anniversary of publication of The Conservative Mind. Alvino-Mario Fantini has written an article for The American Conservative about the remembrance there. The trip included tours of the university and visits to sites important to Russell Kirk, including Kellie Castle, where Dr. Kirk resided and wrote many of his books. Several photos from the trip have been posted toan album on our Facebook page.
Celebrate Russell Kirk's birthday (today) with a rich dessert, a ghostly tale, and a contribution to The University Bookman:
I can't praise @ubookman highly enough. If it's not a part of your reading life, it should be.
Should you have the ability, they are very much deserving of your support. I hope you'll consider donating to their Kirktober fundraiser, as I have done.
