10 Books Every Conservative Must Read: Plus Four Not to Miss and One Impostor

“Because of too much TV and too little decent schooling, too many Americans are unread in the classics that have defined our culture. That’s why Wiker’s 10 Books Every Conservative Must Read is so important: it provides a shopping list for those who want to understand what makes America and the West exceptional.”
—Brett M. Decker, Editorial Page Editor, Washington Times

“Benjamin Wiker illuminates some of the great books of our civilization with an insightful simplicity that is not only breathtaking but potentially life changing.”
—Joseph Pearce, author of biographies of Chesterton, Belloc, C. S. Lewis, and J. R. R. Tolkien

Praise for 10 Books That Screwed Up the World

“Benjamin Wiker has read the worst books in Western Civilization so you don’t have to. Professor Wiker’s poison pen portraits are great critical aids to analyzing some of the worst ideas that have ever contaminated Western Civilization. Professor Wiker recommends actually reading the books—but his own book is a whole lot more fun.”
—Thomas E. Woods, Jr., Ph.D., author of How the Catholic Church Built Western Civilization

“If you want to know where Western civilization ran off the rails, read this book. And if you want to help get us back on track, buy extra copies and see what you can do to get them into doctor’s office waiting rooms, faculty lounges, and your local public library. Wiker has the goods on the authors of our current confusion about (among other things) human nature, morality, sex, economics, law, and government—this book will open many eyes.”
—Elizabeth Kantor, Ph.D., Editor of the Conservative Book Club and author of The Politically Incorrect Guide™ to English and American Literature
