It’s All Over Now, Baby Blue, by Walter A. McDougall
Mr. McDougall reviews Andrew Bacevich's The Limits of Power: The End of American Exceptionalism. I was surprised to see that there were a lot of copies in circulation through the Santa Clara County Library System. Over at Cupertino there was a copy of Bill Kauffman's Ain't My America and The Founder's Second Amendment by Stephen Halbrook. Some sign of diversity, but I wouldn't expect money to be spent on orthodox Catholic books.
I saw a copy of Encountering the Mystery by Patriarch Bartholomew (GB). I have to say that while it did present an Orthodox view of Christianity, I did not find it to be that rigorous theologically. Maybe I'm too much of a Latin. (Or maybe there is something to be said for the art of logic being a prerequisite for theology.)
