Free Congress announces the publication of The Next Conservatism, authored by the late Paul M. Weyrich and his colleague at Free Congress, William S. (Bill) Lind. The late Mr. Weyrich felt an obligation to write this book as he perceived that the pendulum was swinging away from the conservatives as the movement with ideas.
He realized that conservatives were perceived as fighting the last war. In his view, many conservatives appeared to be tired, their ideas exhausted. The authors rightly concluded that conservatives lacked an agenda. For that reason, the late Mr. Weyrich and Mr. Lind penned the next agenda for conservatives and they have produced a compelling treatise. It presents the movement with new ideas. The book is now available and can be ordered from St. Augustine’s Press, South Bend, IN [go to the St. Augustine website at www.staugustine.net/next%20conservatism.html . You can order online from this page by clicking on Add this Book to Cart or by mail by clicking on Print Out, fax or mail your order.
