Insightful history of the US 1955-1975

A brilliant narrative history of the underdog American conservative movement of the 1960s
~Before the Storm: Barry Goldwater and the Unmaking of the American Consensus~ is a sweeping narrative history of the American conservative movement in the 1960s.

Prickly Paradigm Press, 2005

an insightful round-table discussion
The pamphlet consists of Perlstein's provocative, even gripping, essay on how to rebuild the Democratic Party's brand image (not to mention the nation) with a long-term populist program; short responses from various luminaries along the left-of-center spectrum; and a closing summary by the author. The format works and the net effect is inspiring. Buy this book, read it in an hour, and pass it ...

The Tribes of America: Journalistic Discoveries of Our People and Their Cultures
Paul Cowan

New Press, 2008

A reissue of a fascinating work of "superb" ( Chicago Tribune ) reportage on the fault lines that produced today's red/blue divide. First published in 1979 and long out of print, The Tribes of America is an overlooked classic—a prescient and deeply empathetic work based on seven years of reporting from the front lines of the culture wars that continue to divide America. Long before Tom Frank asked, "What's the matter with Kansas?" ...
