By Eduardo Miles-Campos and L. Brent Bozell
310 pages | ISBN 978-0-931888-71-7
Retail Price:
This book provides a guide for prayer and a meditation on the mystical truths about God and man and the social and political ramifications of the Incarnation. Unlike the outdated social justice writers of previous decades, Bozell and Miles-Campos suggest a concrete plan for advancing works of mercy to relieve the suffering of the poor, to uplift the spiritually malnourished, and to form a more vibrant Christian community in the midst of a secular world. This text is presented in both English and Spanish.

Mustard Seeds is the journal of a remarkable spiritual odyssey, the origin and destination points of which are identified in the volume’s subtitle. By the mid-1960s, Brent Bozell had contributed as much any individual to the conservative movement’s capture of the Republican Party. But long before that movement’s apogee in the 1980s, Bozell had moved on, discovering that his Catholic faith demanded more than conservatism could accommodate. The writings gathered here demonstrate Bozell’s extraordinary honesty and courage.

Standard histories on the Age of Colonization tell a sad story of the ills inflicted on indigenous peoples by exploitative Western powers. This book offers a realistic corrective. The Spanish conquest of the New World is shown vividly—in its fervor and exuberance, but most importantly with attention to its central evangelical and civilizing impulse, which made the Americas a central part of Christendom.

English historian and Christian humanist Christopher Dawson stood at the very center of the Catholic literary and intellectual revival in the four decades preceding Vatican II. One can find his influence throughout the twentieth-century Catholic Right. Poet and social critic T. S. Eliot considered him the foremost thinker of his generation, and the founder of American conservatism, Russell Kirk, wrote that he had been “saturated in Dawsonian historical studies [and] my own books reflect Dawson’s concepts.”
Dawson’s reputation declined dramatically during the cultural shifts accompanying Vatican II, and few remembered the English Catholic in the final decades of the twentieth century. A revival of interest of Dawson and his body of work increased dramatically in the last years of John Paul II’s and the beginning of Benedict’s pontificates. This book offers the first study of Dawson’s life and thought as a whole. It is especially poignant as a post–9/11 ree…

The tragic conflict between men of faith and men of science has its origins in a false notion of history: a notion that the Middle Ages stultified scientific exploration and scholarship. French scientist Pierre Duhem dedicated his life to examining this problem. For years, however, his works were inaccessible to English- speaking scholars. Stanley Jaki makes available for the first time a systematic treatment of Duhem’s work along with twenty seven selections (in English translation) from his writings. This book is a powerful testimony to the unity of faith and reason.

Swords Around the Cross presents one of the few full-length treatments of the heroic struggle of the Irish clansmen in their effort to defend their faith and country against English encroachment and conquest in the sixteenth century. This book has infuriated establishment academics for its honest and thorough treatment of the Irish past. In so doing, the image of a “golden age” under Elizabeth I is dealt a serious blow.

By Editors of Triumph
702 pages | ISBN 978-0-931888-72-4
Retail Price:
Triumph magazine was published during the most critical period of American history since the Civil War: 1966–76. These were the years when America passed through a near-revolution and ceased to identify itself as a Christian nation, becoming increasingly secular and neopagan. Triumph was founded to champion the view that every nation is shaped by its religion (or lack thereof); that a religion that has nothing to say in the public arena is not worthy of the name; and that what it has to say must be, first of all, religious. The Best of Triumph will be a source of inspiration and practical guidance for all those interested in the transformative power of Christianity in political life.

The Building of Christendom, 324-1100 is the second volume in “The History of Christendom” series. This series is the only in-print, comprehensive narration of Western history written from an orthodox Catholic perspective. How would a historical narrative read if the author began with the first principles that truth exists and the Incarnation happened? This series is essential reading for those who consider the West worth defending.

By Thomas Storck

Retail Price:
Is Catholicism purely an interior set of convictions? In this provocative study, Storck suggests that a specifically Catholic culture can arise within a secular and pluralistic society. That culture will both challenge and nourish the surrounding society only if Christian truth is incarnated in the manners, customs, and traditions of the community.
