R. J. Rushdoony wrote a lot of books, 1959-2000. The Chalcedon [kalSEEdon] organization, which he founded in 1965, is republishing all of his books. He left behind a dozen books in manuscript form. These are being printed.

As of May 23, 2011, the books are online for free.

Also online are The Journal of Christian Reconstruction. I edited the first 15 issues, 1974-81. There is a problem. They have been re-typeset. The old pagination does not apply. Also, footnotes are consecutive, front to end, not broken up in chapters.

These materials are unique. Some of them, such as The Messianic Character of American Education (1963) and Foundations of Social Order (1968), are classics.

I hope that they will put up a PDF of his 600-page graduate school term paper, Visible Sovereignty.

Not yet posted is Foundations of Christian Scholarship: Essays in the Van Til Perspective (1976), which contains his essay on Cornelius Van Til's psychology.
