Diogenes Unveiled

History & Biography

“In this book, I found that all the things I wish had been said about our timorous hierarchy and various Church scandals actually had been said by this courageous Jesuit (under his Diogenes nom de guerre). Fr. Paul Mankowski scorns the things deserving scorn. For instance, he is blistering in his unrelenting critique of the ‘lavender mafia’. While his pen drips with acid, he also writes with lyrical realism and spiritual beauty about his sojourns with the Missionaries of Charity.”

How to Destroy Western Civilization and Other Ideas from the Cultural Abyss

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“A pithy, often very funny book, with a serious underlying purpose. Peter Kreeft, our very own C. S. Lewis, is a keen diagnostician of our moral and spiritual disorders—here set forth in layman’s language of common sense. He doesn't flinch or coddle. Truth is hard on those who deny it. Whether it makes you laugh or cry, this is a book to be savored and enjoyed on many levels.”

The Crucifix on Mecca's Front Porch

World Religions

“Seldom has a scholar of Islam and Middle Eastern languages spoken so clearly about the profound matters that divide Christianity and Islam. Without engaging in polemics, Pinault writes in a measured way but nevertheless never flinches from the real nature of the differences, especially concerning who Jesus is. This is an indispensable book for both the beginner and the expert, and everyone in between.”

The Flying Inn

Fiction

“Chesterton uses the fantastical to reveal the real, and never has he done so in as prescient a way as in The Flying Inn. In fact, there is nothing too absurd in this satirical work for it not to have actually taken place recently.... It can be enjoyed simply at the level of a rip-roaring good yarn with some sidesplitting laughter. At a deeper level, he lays bare the corrupt mindset that subverts Western civilization in favor of a future beyond. So grab a cask of rum and draw your sword.”

The Pope and the Holocaust

History & Biography

“This dramatically illuminating book should finally put to rest the calumnies against Pius XII, whose actions saved more Jews during the Holocaust that any other single individual. Hesemann tells this story in an entirely gripping manner and explains why Pius had to do this work quietly and often covertly. While the book reads like a thriller, its documentation is thorough, compelling, and definitive.”

The Sexual Revolution

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“This book is a marvel of concision and comprehensiveness. It is also a timely reminder that the Church is the last bastion of truth and sanity left standing. As Bishop Elliott surveys the wasteland that the sexual revolution has left in its wake, he also maps out a blueprint for recovery that leaves one with hope.”

The Story of the Family

Marriage, Family & Relationships

“Assembled so brilliantly by Ahlquist, this Chesterton chrestomathy does with rapier wit and robust humor what so few could do—make laughingstocks of those sappers who are so earnestly undermining the family in the name of freedom. The Woke should fear this book. Everyone else should buy it.”

Why I Don't Call Myself Gay

History & Biography

“Mattson has stripped his soul bare in this brutally honest book. But he has not returned empty handed from the darkness through which he travelled-for he now bears the beauty of the Cross. You will read these pages with tears of joy. This is a work of spiritual realism and much wisdom.”
