Durable Trades

Work, Money & Leadership

Foreword

“Mr. Groves recovers a profound truth: a job is not an end in itself; it is rather one means—and only one means—toward building a rich and satisfying life, toward human flourishing.”

Kayaking with Lambs

Christian Living

“From the taste of a fat blackberry on a warm afternoon to ‘the sound of the moon rising’ to the sweet smell of lamb poop, Brian Miller conveys the small joys, alongside the modern perplexities, of shepherding a small farm. His attention to the cycles of life, of the seasons, and of each day transforms his ‘farm notes’ into a form of poetry.”

Man of the House

Men

Afterword

(wrote the afterword)

Plutocratic Socialism

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“Hilaire Belloc called it ‘the servile state.’ Mark Mitchell offers the contemporary label ‘plutocratic socialism,’ meaning the union of big government and big business, now amplified by the corrupt ideology of ‘wokism.’ With fresh insight and power, Mitchell rehabilitates the case for building a middle-class democracy resting on property rights and self-imposed moral limits as the only way to build a truly free and progressive society. This is political philosophy at its urgent best.”

The Culinary Plagiarist

Arts & Literature

“Imagine a collection of essays with all the wit and polish found in The New Yorker. Subtract the nasally, condescending tone and the moral vacuum also found there. Add in an authentic Midwestern accent and a Christian sensibility (e.g., always slice asparagus stalks so as to honor the Holy Trinity). Let it marinate in a fanciful wine over several days of reading, and you have Jason Peters’ The Culinary Plagiarist: (Mis)Adventures of a Lusty, Thieving, God-Fearing Gourmand.”

The Family Economy

Marriage, Family & Relationships

Afterword

“Excellent! The Family Economy ably translates complex historical developments into a plan of action to rebuild families—and a true civilization.”
