Book Reviews of The Nation Guide to the Nation (Vintage)

Book Review: A Unapologetic Liberal Guide For Liberals
Summary: 5 Stars

Though the fact that it is a handbook to being an "original, progressive, and indie liberal" is somewhat ironic in of itself, /The Nation Guide to the Nation/ is nonetheless helpful for anyone living in the US that is looking to find some Liberal culture points of interest - be they radio and TV programs, coffee/book stores, or even political gatherings. It covers people, places, and happenings that are all over the country that carry or support leftist politics and/or lifestyle, and details how and why they do what they do.

Progressive fanatics will find it informative and relevant in the extreme; Hipsters looking to play the part will find it to be their secret weapon of Cool; Political activists will use it as their trusty yellow-pages when looking for recruiting grounds; Conservatives of all types will most likely hate it. Overall, /The Nation Guide to the Nation/ fulfills everything that it is meant to be, and often does so with a quite appropriate sense of humor.
