An introduction from ajvenigalla

Hello.

I am Anand Venigalla. My blog is at http://letterofliberty.blogspot.com

Some of my interests: libertarianism, Western history, movies, books, novels, American politics

My favorite books: the King James Bible, J. R. R. Tolkien's The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, Murray Rothbard's For A New Liberty and The Ethics of Liberty, Stephen King's On Writing, Cormac McCarthy's Blood Meridian, Charles Dickens's A Tale of Two Cities and Great Expectations, Ernest Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea, C. S. Lewis's The Chronicles of Narnia series, All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr, Liberalism by Ludwig von Mises

Some books I am reading: Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand, The Age of the Democratic Revolution (Vol. 1) by Robert R. Palmer, Politics According to the Bible by Wayne Grudem, On Writing Well by William Zinsser

Favorite people: John Locke, Martin Luther, Thomas Jefferson, Thomas Paine, Samuel Adams, Patrick Henry, Francois Voltaire, J. R. R. Tolkien, Cormac McCarthy, Murray Rothbard, Ludwig von Mises, Lord Acton, Ron Paul, Lew Rockwell, Robert Higgs, H.L. Mencken, Ernest Hemingway, C. S. Lewis, G.K. Chesterton

Welcome to the site Anand. You will find some libertarians here, but be aware that political debate is generally discouraged (it makes too many hard feelings). I'm personally interested in western history, and in theoretical historiography in general. Like you, I find Luther an interesting figure (I think Ecurb likes G.K. Chesterton). And everyone loves to talk about books and movies. It's nice to have you here. Please enjoy yourself. :)

Thanks. I know I will face disagreement and even hostility at times.

But that's fine.
