I want to very much QUALIFY this post by explaining my...RELUCTANCE...as it were to drop general BOOK recs. I don't want to sound meanspirited or short, but there's a tendency among intellectually curious people to believe (subconsciously or not) that EVERYTHING that is opaque in history or the POLITICAL realm of man's existence is somehow to be found in a BOOK - it ISN'T. You WILL not find, ''THE BIG BOOK of HOLOCAUST REVISIONISM and WHY YOU SHOULD NOT ABIDE the STATE RELIGION''. NOR will you find a 200 page volume of, ''WHAT the ALLIES LIED ABOUT and WHAT REALLY HAPPENED in WORLD WAR II''. Books are a TOOL - the HISTORIAN, the ANALYST, the REVISIONIST utilizes TOOLS to construct the TRUTH of the PAST and the PRESENT - just as a carpenter uses a hammer and a saw to build a HOUSE.

The Lively edition has excerpts of many works but we've collected his three most important political texts in their entirety, plus an introduction from the late Dr. Thomas Bertonneau of SUNY, a traditional Catholic, on Maistre's challenge to liberalism:
