Welcome to Douglas Wilson's Blog and May Blog, presented by Canon Press.

Iskir Dreyer and me, September 11, 2023, Introduction.

Here's the plan, guys.

I'm going to begin with the brief review of Andrew Iskir's book, The Boniface Option.

After that, I'm going to interact a bit more with Rod Dreyer's review of it, along

with some observations about Dreyer's odd and erratic behavior since his review was

published.

And then I'm going to reveal a little bit of the thinking behind the public invitation

that both I and Jared Longshore extended to Dreyer, an offer that invited him to come

to Moscow and see some things for himself.

In short, we will begin with the public stuff, and then move gradually into some inside

baseball stuff.

And you, because you are premium members, get to read all of it.

Just kidding, there are no premium members.

But at least you get to act like premium members.

Also, I was reliably informed at church this last Sunday that I had neglected to select

a book of the month for either August or September, that this came as a surprise to me

should give you some indication of how abandoned I've become to the thinking of great thoughts,

or what some might call wool gathering.

Either way, I'm tagging this post as a book review, and this book is my September selection

for the book of the month slot, not that it needs my help.

We are a few weeks after the book's release, and it is still selling quite briskly on Amazon.
