It may well be a sign of my incurable dorkiness, but I just get very excited whenever the latest issue of The Claremont Review of Books comes out. This issue looks as good as any — which is to say it looks really, really good. In particular, I’m looking forward to Bill Voegeli’s piece on conservatism and civil rights. I know I’m quoted in it, but I’ve refrained from reading it until I can set aside time to read it all in one gulp. It’s not on the site yet, but you can find the essay here.
