The more I learn about you the more I respect and admire you. Yes, you put the Bible first, as it should be. Ideally, these books, and others, should be available to all parents who home school as well.

In fact, the current state of our "public schools" is abominable, and schools, universities and teachers and teachers unions have been infiltrated and turned into indoctrination camps.

"Be ye doers of the word, not just hearers". And young people need examples of doers to follow. Thank you.

Other than The Holy Bible, Stephen Ambrose, and the Dan Miller work I've heard touted on Steve Deace's podcast, I know very little about these selections. Thank you for the synopses--and for all you do for America!

John Eldredge's 'Wild at Heart' is so very powerful, valuable, unique, and important -- yet, I find it difficult to read, and have never finished reading the dang book. But -- listening to the *audiobook*, the one narrated by the author, John Eldredge -- wow! ... very engaging, much much easier to follow and grasp. A great value buy of the audiobook can be had from Libro.FM.

I've read half the books you recommended.

I would add another: "Warrior's Rage", Col Douglas Macgregor. His experience mirrored my own.

Thank you for the list. Have been reading through the Bible each year since we started homeschooling. The rest are in a stack next to my bedside table. Some finished and the rest all compete for my attention. So glad that you recommended The Fourth Turning.

I found Larry's book for a dollar, brand new, at the Salvation Army Thrift shop, and loved it! Bought several more for friends. Magnificent.

Outstanding all. I have read about half of them. Starting with the Bible.. I would add Sun Tzu - The Art of War... AND both General Patton's book and General Rommel's book. The best part of Air War College when I took it was reading the books recommended but that was in the 1990 time frame for me. Clearly we are living the events described in the "Fourth Turning." Additionally because of all the total BS about COVID, anyone who comments on mRNA vaccines plus or minus needs to go back and read Genome by Matt Ridley..I plan a substack on that arena in the near future at BobFeldtman.substack.com

Thx Capt. Might I suggest

“Return of the gods” by Jonathan Cahn. Gives a good read of why the ancient demons are still trying to control the earth.
