Essential Books
“What books should I be reading? Where do I start for a well-rounded education?”
If that sounds like something you’ve wondered about, then you’ve come to the right place.
These days it is harder to get the well-rounded education you deserve. Core ideas behind the American Founding and Western civilization have been driven out of too many classrooms.
But imagine you could still learn these essential principles. Imagine you had access to great ideas and books not on the typical syllabus, and to mentors to guide you in your intellectual journey.
The good news is you can have all that.
From the hundreds of books we have published, we have selected some that stand out as introductions to Western civilization, the American experience, conservative thought, and economics.
