The Conservative Cave Traveling Library
Big Dog:
(Admins, please sticky this thread).
If you're like me, and I know I am, you have books you have read and enjoyed, and are ready to part with. Some of those books may be inspirational, some may be thought-provoking, and some may be fun- but they all have one thing in common: they're taking up valuable bookshelf space that could be holding new books.
Obumazombie and I hit on an idea for a lending-library and pay-it-forward book club: The Conservative Cave Traveling Library. Generous CCers can post available books in this thread, and inquisitive CCers can browse the selections. If you see a book that interests you, contact the sender by PM to make arrangements to transfer the book. Mailing costs and disposition after reading (options being- return to sender, kept by recipient, or place on the block for another worthy recipient) are between sender and recipient.
The opening move: I am sending Mark Levin's Liberty & Tyranny to Obumazombie.
When he finishes it, he is free to return it, keep it, give it away, or return it to circulation in the Traveling Library. I am also adding a liberty-related quote and my signature to the inside of the front cover, which everyone else is free to do as well. I think it will be great for books to amass quotes from Conservatives across the country (and beyond, perhaps) as they are circulated.
Later this weekend, I will post additional titles I am adding to the Traveling Library. I'll have some politics, philosophy, history, and fiction. I may also add some cookbooks that I don't use.
