I will have to agree as well. That was a fantastic article. I have read several of Birzer's biographies, I have been a reader of the Imaginative Conservative website for years, and I have watched many of his lectures available on YouTube. I never knew he was a fan of Howard--Tolkien, yes--but had never read that he liked the works of Robert E. Howard. Nice!

I think I have one nomination for next year's Howard Days awards.
