Support a Catholic Speaker Month – Thomas E. Woods
Fellow Facebook contact and Catholic blogger Matthew Warner (Fallible Blogma) put together the Support a Catholic Speaker Month initiative in October, and from the list of speakers I chose Dr. Thomas E. Woods.

Dr. Woods is one of the more prominent Catholic and libertarian thinkers of our day. A prolific author, he has authored nine books, including the recent New York Times bestseller Meltdown: A Free-Market Look at Why the Stock Market Collapsed, the Economy Tanked, and Government Bailouts Will Make Things Worse. He has written the following books of particular interest to Catholics:
- Sacred Then and Sacred Now: The Return of the Old Latin Mass
- How the Catholic Church Built Western Civilization
- The Church and the Market: A Catholic Defense of the Free Economy
- The Church Confronts Modernity
Dr. Woods is currently a Senior Fellow at the Ludwig von Mises Institute in Auburn, Alabama.[1] You may visit his website at TomWoods.com and learn more about him on his About page.
