Beskrivelse
The American Cause explains in simple yet eloquent language the bedrock principles upon which Americas experiment in constitutional self-government is built. Russell Kirk, whose life and thought has recently been featured in C-SPANs acclaimed American Writers series -- intended this little book to be an assertion of the moral and social principles upholding our nation. Kirks primer is an aid to reflection on those principles -- political, economic, and religious -- that have united Americans when faced with challenges and threats from the enemies of ordered freedom. In this new age of terrorism, Kirks lucid and straightforward presentation of the articles of American belief is both necessary and welcome. Gleaves Whitneys newly edited version of Kirks work, combined with his insightful commentary, make The American Cause a timely addition to the literature of liberty.
