Garage Sale of the Mind and Other Opinions
From the back cover:
Most of these essays and articles appeared over a twenty-five year span in one or another of the publications put out by Regular Baptist Press. The political commentaries were first published by Northwest Conservative, a monthly journal, or by The Statesman Journal, Salem’s daily newspaper, which also published the original, shorter version of “The Tyler Principle.”
Writing is a curious enterprise. In order to offer public discourse we shut ourselves away and refuse to answer phones and doorbells. In order to say something to people we will never meet we discourage, for a time, conversation with our spouses and friends. I’m especially grateful for the patience and encouragement of Bonnie, the resident extrovert, who has learned to live with the ruminative silences of a husband who spends a lot of time with the printed page.
