[close] A group to discuss the books that have had the greatest influence on American conservatism and new books relating to American conservatism. This group has its origin in a series on www.donttread.com entitled the The Great Works of American Conservatism. The Great Works of American Conservatism series highlights the writings, speeches, and art that have had the most influence on American Conservatism from its inception through the present. American Conservatism is a one of a kind, unique political philosophy. It is a strange synthesis of philosophies respecting God, human dignity, liberty, the rule of law, order, individual freedom and equality. American Conservatism is a radically liberal philosophy. Unfortunately, today's progressives have moved away from this original American philosophy, and American conservatives must now defend our American system.
