Description
A classic of American politics returns. Sidney Blumenthal's seminal study of contemporary politics answers the following question: 'how did the Republican Party build its infrastructure and arrive at the Reagan triumph in the years following Barry Goldwater's defeat and Nixon's cataclysmic resignation in 1974?' Based on hundreds of interviews with key policy makers, Blumenthal charts how the conservatives orchestrated their influence to change American politics - an indispensable lesson for any out-of-office party determined to regain political power.
