Gill invites readers to consider a very large proposition--that the weakening of the family in Western societies is inextricably linked to the weakening of our faith in the idea of progress. ""Posterity Lost" will be one of the most influential treatments of family change of this decade". says Norval Glenn, "American Journal of Sociology".

An elegantly designed, beautifully composed volume of personal letters from famous American men and women that celebrates the American Experience and illuminates the rich history of some of America’s most storied families. Posterity is at once an epistolary chronicle of America and a fascinating glimpse into the hearts and minds of some of history’s most admired figures and storied families. Spanning more than three centuries, these letters contain enduring lessons—in life, love, character and compassion—that will surprise and enlighten. Included here are letters from Thomas Jefferson to his daughter, warning her of the evils of debt; General Patton on D-Day to his son, a cadet at West Point, about what it means to be a good soldier; W.E.B. Du Bois to his daughter about character beneath the color of skin; Oscar Hammerstein about why, after all his success, he doesn’t stop working; Woody Guthrie, writing from a New Jersey asylum, to nine-year-old Arlo about universal human frailty; Eleanor Roosevelt chastising her grown son for his Christmas plans; and Groucho Marx as a dog to his twenty-five-year-old son. Here are renowned Americans in their own words and in their own times, seen as they were seen by their children. Here are our great Americans as mothers and fathers.

One of the foremost and widely recognized Roman Catholic apologists, Patrick Madrid, published Answer Me This! “to provide factual, convincing answers to people’s questions about Catholicism.” Upon inspection, we find his answers to be neither factual nor convincing. What Madrid has demonstrated for us, rather, is the typical approach of a Roman Catholic apologist: to overwhelm the ignorant and the naïve with sweeping claims, historical glosses and logical leaps that crumble under even modest scrutiny. When subjected to sober investigation, the Roman religion is exposed as the novelty it clearly is. Throughout his arguments, Madrid criticizes the inquirer for not being familiar with Scripture and history. Yet, it is Madrid who is ignorant—misreading and misunderstanding the source material, overplaying his hand and outrunning his coverage at every turn.

"The last great work of the age of reason, the final instance when all human knowledge could be presented with a single point of view ... Unabashed optimism, and unabashed racism, pervades many entries in the 11th, and provide its defining characteristics ... Despite its occasional ugliness, the reputation of the 11th persists today because of the staggering depth of knowledge contained with its volumes. It is especially strong in its biographical entries. These delve deeply into the history of men and women prominent in their eras who have since been largely forgotten - except by the historians, scholars"-- The Guardian, https://www.theguardian.com/books/booksblog/2012/apr/10/encyclopedia-britannica-11th-edition.
