Book Reviews of Goldwater

Book Review: A Fascinating Book About a Man and a Movement
Summary: 5 Stars

Lee Edwards has written a book that is not only a biography of Goldwater but is also a history of the conservative revolution that he created beginning in the late 1950s. Edwards traces Goldwater's political rise in Arizona, his rise in the US Senate as America's leading conservative in the early 1960s his presidential campaign and loss to Lyndon Johnson in 1964 and his work afterwards to maintain and expand the conservative movement he helped create. Edwards traces the links between Goldwater's activities in the 1960s and the Reagan Revolution of the 1980s showing how Goldwater brought many leading conservatives into the ranks of the Republican party. Regardless of your political affiliation this is a great book, and if you want to understand where the Republicans of today come read this book to find out.
