This Scoop Couldn't Wait Until Monday

On May 12, 2007, Emory University will unveil the complete collection of letters from Flannery O'Connor to Elizabeth “Betty” Hester [http://www.emory.edu/EMORY_REPORT/erarchive/2007/April/April%2023/flannery_oconnor.htm] . Hester was, um, unorthodox, but it looks like the libertines will be sorely disappointed:

Who is Jesus?

Michael (8) received a new children's book in his Easter basket: Who is Jesus [http://www.pauline.org/store/moreinfo/0819883131.html]? It's a perfect book for someone who is past the first stages of reading but not ready for heavier stuff like, say, Romano Guardini&

The Easter Swallows

Regular readers of this blog will realize this is a first: an endorsement/review of a children's book. Goodness knows, I've read more children's books than Mr. Rogers, but I typically find they're something to be endured, like a dirty diaper or

Looking for Information

I know I've been asking for a lot of input lately, but here's another. Anyone have an opinion on Randy Engel or her book, The Rite of Sodomy ”“ Homosexuality and the Roman Catholic Church [http://www.riteofsodomy.com/]? Email link on left (ejscheske@yahoo.com).

Brews You Can Use

New book. Sounds pretty good and has a distributist ring to it. It's apparently about how Miller, Anheuser-Busch, et al. captured the market after WWII. Here's the blog review where I read about it [http://beerblog.genx40.com/archives/2006/august/bookreviewgreat]. Unfortunately, I can'

Pink Floyd and Hilaire Belloc

Syd Barrett of Pink Floyd liked Belloc's famous children's book [http://chestertonandfriends.blogspot.com/2006/07/barrett-and-belloc.html].

ISI

The Tory Anarchist offers a great overview of the new ISI catalogue [http://toryanarchist.wordpress.com/2006/06/20/cataloging/]. At least it sounds great. I haven't received my copy of the catalogue yet, which is odd since they're one of this blog's sponsors.

Brews You Can Use III

Also via A Good Beer Blog: Essential Reference of Domestic Brewers and Their Bottled Brands [http://www.essential-reference.com/]. AGBB gives it a good review [http://beerblog.genx40.com/archives/2006/may/bookreviewthe1]. Excerpt: > For the beer geek like me, the DBBB can be used in one or two

Senior List

Remember my post earlier this week about monks in eastern Oklahoma (actually, it wasn't a post, as much as a link to a Chesterton and Friends post [http://chestertonandfriends.blogspot.com/2006/05/new-gilbert-is-here.html] about the monks). Anyway, the post mentions John Senior, the University of Kansas

Brews You Can Use IV

For my transcendentalist, beer-drinking readers. You can't judge a book by its cover, but this cover is beautiful: Amazon link [http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1584654694/thedailyeudem-20] . And speaking of regional beer news, readers in the tri-state area of Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana will be glad
