Synopsis:

A Few Reasonable Words gathers together some of the most important essays of one of the most influential American publishers of the twentieth century, Henry Regnery. Regnery published most of the seminal works of modern conservatism, and here proves himself to rank among the most distinguished conservative authors.

From the Publisher: A Ground-breaking Publisher's Final Insights
One of this country’s most far-sighted publishers, Henry Regnery knew and published nearly all of the seminal conservative minds of our age. Included in this provocative book are insightful examinations of key figures such as Albert J. Nock, James Burnham, Felix Morely, James Jackson Kilpatrick, and Russell Kirk. Regnery also addresses the central struggles of our time as manifested in World War II and the rise of Soviet Russia. Particularly fascinating is his lengthy overview of the emergence of a "revisionist" history of the last world war, one that is highly critical of Roosevelt and Churchill’s leadership during and after World War II. Finally, personal portraits and appreciations of distinguished friends and mentors such as Max Picard, Hermann Schnitzler, Wyndham Lewis, Richard Strauss, T. S. Eliot, Ezra Pound, and Alexander Solzhenitsyn round out this indispensable collection of reflections and analysis by a man who played a key role in shaping--through his publishing firm Regnery Gateway--the conservative renaissance in America.
