Description
Richard M. Weaver, a thinker and writer celebrated for his unsparing diagnoses and realistic remedies for the ills of our age, is known largely through a few of his works that remain in print. This new collection of Weaver's shorter writings, assembled by Ted J. Smith III, Weaver's leading biographer, presents many long-out-of-print and never-before-published works that give new range and depth to Weaver's sweeping thought. Included are eleven previously unpublished essays and speeches that show more were left in near-final form at the time of Weaver's death in 1963. Their presentation "exhausts the body of significant completed manuscripts contained in the three known collections of [Weaver's] papers." In all, there are some one hundred twenty-six essays, speeches, book reviews, and editorials. - Publisher. show lessTags
