Bastille Day Getting Replaced!



Dear National Review Reader,

Well, maybe not officially, but here in the US of A, next Tuesday (July 14th!) many of us will be celebrating the official publication date of Arthur Brooks' new book, The Conservative Heart: How to Build a Fairer, Happier, and More Prosperous America.

Ever the happy warrior, Brooks, a good friend to this publication and the brainy president of the American Enterprise Institute, has penned another exceptional book that takes on American poverty and designs a policy agenda of true hope through earned success.

And it's not only about an "agenda." In The Conservative Heart, Brooks argues that it is time for a new kind of conservatism–a conservatism that fights poverty, promotes equal opportunity, and extols spiritual enlightenment. It is an inclusive, optimistic movement with a positive agenda to help people lead happier and more fulfilling lives.

Clear, well-reasoned, accessible, and free of vituperative politics, The Conservative Heart is a welcome new strategy for conservatives looking for fresh, actionable ideas–and for politically independent citizens who believe "neither side" is adequately addressing their needs and concerns.

If you're an apostle of the Left's ineffective compassion, or if you're a Scrooge wannabe, this book isn't for you. But if you are looking for a new way forward for America, for the haves and the have nots and everyone in between, then The Conservative Heart is going to prove most welcome, and, we hope and anticipate, most consequential.

You can–you should, you MUST!–pre-order your copy of The Conservative Heart now, right here at Amazon.

Want to know a little more about it first? OK: Visit Brooks' dedicated The Conservative Heart website to discover just why this book was written, and, more importantly, just why every conservative should own it.

To quote the infomercial . . . but don't just take my word for it!

Here are some leading conservatives who have some mighty impressive things to say about Brooks and his new book:

GEORGE WILL: "Arthur Brooks understands that not only does the way we think shape the way we speak, but that the way we speak about social problems such as poverty and opportunity conditions the way we act about them. He has written a thinking person's primer for a conservative politics of human flourishing."

SENATOR MIKE LEE: "This book is a blueprint for building a true social reform movement that ensures every American can pursue their happiness. The Conservative Heart should be required reading for every American who wants to transcend our broken status quo and reunite our country."

ERIC METAXAS: "The Conservative Heart is genuinely entertaining and profoundly insightful, not just in diagnosing the failures of progressivism and the shortcomings of conventional conservatism but most vitally in showing us a way forward."

CONGRESSMAN PAUL RYAN: "The Conservative Heart makes the case for why conservative principles should be at the center of our poverty-fighting efforts. Arthur is one of the best minds on these issues, and he demonstrates why it's so important that we engage in our communities and learn from those who are on the front lines of fighting poverty."

Tres bien, non?

Speaking of which: While Bastille Day is of profound importance to the French, to many sane-thinking Americans it comes across as a celebration not just of France but of the French Revoution, an ideology that created countless victims. There couldn't be a more appropriate day, then, for the release of Arthur Brooks' new book, which seeks concrete ways to take real victims–of misfortune, of big government oppression–and provide them, and the entire American nation, with real opportunity.

It's sure to be a classic. Get your pre-publication copy of The Conservative Heart: How to Build a Fairer, Happier, and More Prosperous America at Amazon.

Au revoir,

Best,
