They brought honesty and common sense, fair play and compassion, bravery and self-discipline, rational thought and faith and a passionate love of liberty to a 2000-year-long struggle to achieve freedom.
The best of the Brits produced thousands of indispensable inventions, developed wildly popular sports, designed romantic houses and gardens, created astonishing literary masterpieces, lived with style and humour, tackled dangerous missions with daring and ingenuity, and fought with indomitable courage to establish and protect the free world. We aim to describe their superb achievements and extraordinary lives. We celebrate creativity and common sense, fair play and compassion, bravery and self-discipline, rational thought, freedom, faith, and wit.

Over the last decade I have come to realise how much of all I value depends on ideas and traditions nurtured by Brits. I hope you will be inspired by what you find in this blog/website, and that you will help us to make it grow in brilliance and depth by becoming a Friend.
CATHERINE (CAT) GLASS
I'm an American and the descendant of Czech, Irish, and English defenders of freedom. I enjoy sharing the inheritance - liberty, love of God, reason, imagination, fair play, a generous and forgiving spirit, the rule of just law, representative government, books, gardens, music, art, sports, inventions. . .
