Where did Western study go? NAS traces the decline of Western Civilization courses from 1964 to today in our report “The Vanishing West.” Peter Wood talks about it here. He writes, ”The students — a good many anyway — have no idea what they are missing.”

If you want evidence for why America’s rising generations are largely (a) ignorant of their own history, (b) scornful of the civilization that gave them the freedoms they enjoy, and (c) unwilling to defend that civilization, you need to read “The Vanishing West.”
