Surely a Southern approach to life is of the mind and not the map, and so this Canadian lawyer says hello to fellow Percyites (is that the proper designation?) in balmier climes.

The Percy web site is marvelous, and as a director of the newly-formed American Chesterton Society, I hope to encourage for our group just the sort of thing being done here. (Why not check out our first efforts at http://www.winternet.com/~turtle/ACS/pgAmChesSoc.html.

At any rate, I belong to a book notification service (www.amazon.com) and was informed today that John Desmond's book on Walker Percy, "At the Crossroads: Ethical and Religious Themes in the Writings of Walker Percy" is now available. Of course, all of us should be ordering not from Amazon from from our own "Percy Bookstore", right?

Any other Canadians out there, eh?
