Co-published with the Intercollegiate Studies Institute, each of the author's articles in this collection was published separately during the decade of the 1970s. Covering both domestic and diplomatic history, they reflect a conservative outlook and a profound disenchantment with liberal politics and left-wing historiography. This unique volume is all the more significant because it presents a perspective that triumphed politically in the 1980s with the election of Ronald Reagan to the presidency of the United States. The attitudes and interpretations found in this provocative volume promise to become increasingly important as we face a decade of probable conservative supremacy in Washington, DC. A controversial and clearly written volume for both academic and general readers of contemporary political thought in America.
