The University Bookman is sustained by the generosity of readers like you. Your gifts help us keep serious conversation about the books that shape culture open to readers everywhere. In 2027, we plan to work with more than 30 writers to publish nearly 150 reviews and reach more than 100,000 readers around the world. Part of our vision for next year is to incorporate new voices in the Bookman — and to introduce new audiences to a distinctive conservative view. But this work requires resources to help edit, publish, and promote the content while maintaining a fund to provide writers a modest honorarium for their work.Will you give $50, $75, or $100 to help us meet our $20,000 goal to expand the work of The University Bookman?During Kirktober, every donor will receive a link to an audio recording Ex Tenebris, a ghostly short story from Russell Kirk. The audio book was produced by a former assistant to Russell Kirk, and we think you'll thoroughly enjoy it.Here's what our writers have to say:"I write for The University Bookman because it is important for me as a scholar, an American, and someone who desires to be a part of a great conversation—the conversation of mankind, as carried on within the great, Western tradition. Nowhere else can one engage with books that take seriously our God-given natures as persons and participants in a way of life that is worthy, brings us closer to who we ought to be, and is deeply ours. As an author and as a reader The Bookman enriches my understanding and enlivens my spirit as it keeps me grounded in the important task of renewing our common way of life." — Bruce Frohnen“The past couple of years have been a time of seemingly endless jeremiads about the decline of reading, literacy, and books. But in the midst of such chaos, The University Bookman simply continues to review ‘books that build culture’ — a mission to which I am honored to contribute with my own reviews.” – Nadya WilliamsThank you for your consideration and generosity, Luke C. Sheahan, Ph.D., Editor The University Bookman Please note: Your gift is completely tax deductible and helps us continue to offer this trusted resource to many thousands of readers around the world.
