Enthusiastic about Appalachia, bird dogs, a solid majority of my children, and 28-gauge shotguns. I sometimes write things here: theatlantic.com/author/andrew-exum/
- Had a lovely time walking the ridges around Glencoe. Having trouble thinking of a more beautiful place I have ever visited. Recommend anyone who visits to stay at the Clachaig Inn.
- Hell yes Haggis-flavored potato chips

- America is the superpower. Less powerful partners cannot be allowed to determine when and where we go to war. www.theatlantic.com/internationa...
- I’m weird like this, but even though I am highly skeptical of this imminent deal between the U.S. and Saudi, I think closer relations would be a good thing, and I’m bullish about the future of the relationship. www.theatlantic.com/internationa...
