Summary: A quick start on reading
Comment: To understand the nature of this essay one must look at it in the same light as the author. Dr. Schall is not trying to write a new best seller or deep thinker but rather a short and to the point guide.

The essay is less than 60 pages long and is a quick read. Not really getting into either of the two arguments very deeply, it rather giving an overview of why Schall believes that morals develop intellegence and that a personal library is a must.

The greatest part of the book and Schall brags about is his List of Unlikely Books worth reading. Here he stresses the classics; Plato, Aquinas, Arostotle, Cicero, Agustine but he also lists some modern authors as well.

While the book lacks a serious attempt to tie the ideas of morality and a personal library together it is a good refrence as to other books worth reading.
