Synopsis
“With a comprehensive new introduction by Russell Kirk...a book...so solid in its substance and implications that it barely shows its age.... What Babbitt has to say about the classics, and the ancients, American civilization and character still deserve to be known and pondered by all those interested in education.”—Milton Hindus, Brandeis University
