Book excerpt: In Virtue and the Promise of Conservatism, Bruce Frohnen attempts to rescue the essence of conservative virtue from rationalists and materialists of whatever political colour. He argues that we have lost and must attempt to regain the conservative good life and the outlook which made it possible. The tools needed to do that, according to Frohnen, are humility and political action aimed at combating the centralising and materialistic structures and beliefs interfering with the formation and retention of family, church and neighbourhood.
