A Call to Arms for Classical Christian Education
Battle for the American Mind: Uprooting a Century of Miseducation, by Pete Hegseth with David Goodwin, New York: Broadside Books, 2022, 288 pages, hardcover.
Something is not true education unless it has taught you life’s true values. While that sentence isn’t specifically from the book under review, that is one of its key underlying messages.
This is a collaboration in many regards, including drawing from distinguished personages from the past. Many are quoted. For instance, Plato, who said, “Education is teaching our children to desire the right things,” and G.K. Chesterton, who wrote, “Education is not a subject and does not deal with subjects. It is instead a transfer of a way of life.”
