Marriage Matters

A Review of 'Get Married: Why Americans Must Defy the Elites, Forge Strong Families, and Save Civilization' by Brad Wilcox

In his new book Get Married: Why Americans Must Defy the Elites, Forge Strong Families, and Save Civilization, Brad Wilcox tackles the big questions of why marriage and family formation are in such dire straits and what we can do about it.
