New Grover Cleveland Book


For those of you who enjoy reading about America's "gilded age," my friend and mentor Rev., Dr. Pafford has authored a new book. Here is my brief review of his The Forgotten Conservative: Rediscovering Grover Cleveland. Professor Pafford is church friend of mine, a distinguished scholar from Northwood University, and one of Russell Kirk's few intellectual successors. Below is his biography on the book:

John M. Pafford,
Ph.D., a protege of Russell Kirk, is a professor of history and philosophy at Northwood University in Midland, Michigan, and a member of the board of scholars of the Mackinac Center for Public Policy. He is the author of the volume Russell Kirk in the Major Conservative and Libertarian Thinkers series (2010) and of John Jay: The Forgotten Founder (2009).
