What books might people be surprised to find on your bookshelves?

There are many. But, I’ll keep it free of controversy while listing a few that are very dear: Script & Scribble: The Rise and Fall of Handwriting by Kitty Burns Flory; Clownfishes and Sea Anemones by John H. Tullock; and Wrestling Title Histories by Randy Duncan and Gary Will.

 

What book hasn’t been written that you’d like to read? 

A book that would present a passionate call to Orthodoxy and G-d’s service while not demonizing G-d’s creation and non-Jewish humanity.

 

What books are you embarrassed not to have read yet? 

Many books of the European counter-revolution and the contemporary French New Right which are only in French.

 

What do you plan on reading next?

I am currently looking towards Gary Sutherland’s Hunting Grounds: A Scottish Football Safari and Remembering Belloc by James V. Schall.
