Good Apologetics Books

[rosarylover89]

My brother will be going to college in the fall, and his school is strongly Calvinist. I’m not worried about him at all, but I’d like to give him a good reference book so he can defend himself if he needs to. I’m thinking about Answer Me This, but if anyone knows of a book that relates more directly to Calvinist questions/accusations (as opposed to Fundamentalist), I’d love to hear about it.

Are you sure Karl Keating wrote “Nuts and Bolts”? I found a book with that title written by Tim Staples:

“College Apologetics: Proof of the Truth of the Catholic Faith” by Father Anthony F. Alexander is a classic and would be right up his alley. You can find used copies at a very reasonable price on Amazon.
