Amanda Bradley has consistently been one of our most popular writers. For instance, this month’s top article so far is her review of Manning Up. She has considerable knowledge of religion and Western Esotericism, combined with a Traditionalist and a New Right outlook, which she brings to bear chiefly on issues related to women and families.
