I was just looking up something in my copy of A Patriot’s History of the United States, a highly recommended work of scholarship and prose, when I came across this wonderful little witticism:
It is not surprising, then, that so many left-wing historians miss the boat (and miss it, and miss it, and miss it to the point where they need a ferry schedule).
Good stuff, co-authored by JLF friend and University of Dayton professor Larry Schweikart. The entire 900-page work is well worth a read, or a re-read as the case may be. Take your time. There’s a lot in it to savor, to ponder, and to take to heart.
