Book Reviews of Conservatism in America since 1930: A Reader

Book Review: Excellent collection of the movement's heavy hitters.
Summary: 5 Stars

It may come as a surprise to some critics - at least to those who reduce conservatism to either a form of corporatism or Christian theocracy - that the conservative movement has deep and diverse roots. This book collects some of the writings of the primary movers and discusses the similarities and differences between the ideas of each individual and movement.

This is a collection of political theory, not a history of the politics over this period. However, that doesn't mean the discussion isn't dry or boring. Moreover, this makes it a book that will be useful as a reference guide for longer than most other political books put out for the lay reader.
