Cogitations

Presented in this volume, in no particular date or subject order, is a collection of some of my Rule of Reason columns. Included are excerpts from two of my Roaring Twenties detective novels, Stolen Words and An August Interlude. The subjects range from Islam to education to immigrations to censorship to our cultural malaise to book reviews. I have also written Sparrowhawk, a popular six-title historical series of novels set in England and Virginia in the pre-Revolutionary period that has been in continuous publication since 2001. His articles and reviews have been published in The Wall Street Journal, Publishers Weekly, the Journal of Colonial Williamsburg, and Marine Corps League, and numerous other print publications. My political, critical, and cultural columns can be found on the weblogs of Rule of Reason, Capitalism Magazine, Family Security Matters and other venues.
