THE CONSERVATIVE SIXTIES KARTONIERT (TB)

The Conservative Sixties tells «the other story» of America in the era of left-wing protests 
countercultural experiments  and a civil rights revolution. Ten original historical essays
focus on Phyllis Schlafly  Ronald Reagan  Barry Goldwater  the John Birch Society  the
Minutemen  «Moral Mothers and Goldwater Girls»  «Cowboy Conservatives»  «National Politics
versus Community Interest»  «Below-the-Belt Politics»  and the «Politics of Law and Order». The
Conservative Sixties demonstrates that throughout the 1960s  right-wing activists organized at
the grass-roots  re-thought their priorities  discovered new allies  and prepared to defeat
liberals in the political and cultural arenas. This history of the 1960s puts the presidencies
of Ronald Reagan  George H. Bush  and George W. Bush - as well as the conservative turn of
Congress and the American people - into historical perspective.
