Chris’s collected works are a kind of patchwork quilt, stitched together from the fabric of his opinions, be they political or practical, his historical ponderings, personal anecdotes, genealogical forays, and vivid travelogues.

This, they tell me, is supposed to be vacation. I’m hot, I’m sticky, and somewhere in…
