Thank you my friend! Preorders, esp on Amazon, go a long ways toward determining whether or not bookstores stock a particular book. Really appreciate the support!

Thanks! Hope you pre-order and then enjoy it—stay turned for updates about podcasts and events. The press designed the cover—I wanted something that echoed and evoked 18th century pamphlets. The symbols here look like common 18th century printing and evoke the stars on the flag—I think at least!

Right on! I like the story of Angulimala—here’s a short piece I wrote after last years election. Good luck my friend!
