Dear John, 

Most holiday deals are long gone, but not this one.

Every book in our store is 50% off until Thursday, December 31. You still have time to add great titles to your 2021 reading list.

Here are the five most popular items right now:

  1. Modern Age: After the recent elections, you’re probably wondering: Where is conservatism headed now? In our contentious and confusing times, this journal exposes you to the best ideas that conservatives of all stripes are wrestling with. Historian Wilfred McClay calls Modern Age “required reading for those who want to engage conservative thought at a high level.” No wonder we’re getting so many subscriptions this year!
     
  2. What So Proudly We Hail: In a Wall Street Journal column, Peggy Noonan called it “a stupendous compilation of the best things said by and to Americans.” The selections cover everyone from Mark Twain to Flannery O’Connor, from George Washington to Theodore Roosevelt, from Benjamin Franklin to Irving Berlin. Noonan said that she “opens it every night at random and always finds something valuable.” A wonderful addition to every book lover’s library.
     
  3. The Solzhenitsyn Reader: This collection of poems, stories, “miniatures” (prose poems), essays, and speeches is the ideal introduction to Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, one of the most monumental figures of the twentieth century. The Chicago Sun-Times says that “this expansive, convenient ‘greatest hits’ fills a gaping void on the shelves for those interested in dipping further into Solzhenitsyn.” 
     
  4. What Is Conservatism?: This illuminating essay collection shows what unites conservatives even as it explores conservatism’s rich internal debate. What Is Conservatism? features essays by leading conservative thinkers like F. A. Hayek, William F. Buckley Jr., Russell Kirk, and many others. RealClearPolitics says it’s “as timely today as when it appeared five decades ago.”
     
  5. Ten Ways to Destroy the Imagination of Your Child: With wicked humor and penetrating insight, Anthony Esolen confronts contemporary trends in parenting and schooling by reclaiming lost traditions. This practical, insightful book is essential reading for any parent who cares about the paltry thing that childhood has become, and who wants to give a child something beyond the dull drone of today’s culture. The esteemed professor Peter Kreeft calls it a “worthy successor to C. S. Lewis’s The Abolition of Man.”
     

Of course, these are just 5 of the 200 titles available for a bargain price. I invite you to browse the full list.

Remember, these books are 50% off only until Thursday. After that, they go up in price. So now is the time to order thoughtful titles for 2021!
