Summary: One of two most influential biographies I've read
Comment: As a young man I encountered C. S. Lewis in his "Surprised by Joy." I have long considered it one of the most influential books I've read. Now I add Kirk's autobiography to that short list. I have read much of Kirk over the years, but his masterful style--he truly was a man of letters--works in "Sword" to reveal the man behind the writings. Kirk is a fascinating fellow and provides a model of the contemplative life in our modern age.

Rating: 5
Summary: This book represents a summary of a conservative experience.
Comment: The late Dr. Kirk, one of the fathers of american conservative thought, has presented a compelling narrative of the life and passions of a conservative thinker who navigated the troubled waters of the Twentieth Century. The book explores the moral, ethical, and political dimensions of his intellectual self-discovery. In the process of reading this well crafted work, one will learn a great deal about the ideals and truths that underlie the modern conservative movement. I highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to understand the foundations of the modern world and the options for a better future.
