Tradition & Sanity Recommendations

Tradition and Sanity Substack is run by writing father-and-son-duo Dr. Peter and Julian Kwasniewski.  We cover everything from the theology of the Latin Mass to Art History, Classical Music, Mountain Climbing, and Trout Fishing. We write about what we love and the fullness of life—in mind and body, in spirit, ear, eye, and hand!  

 

Here you can find our book recommendations on topics ranging from farming to sculpture, from Pope Francis to Church history.
