William F. Buckley, Jr., and the American conservative movement

Would there be an American conservative movement without William F. Buckley, Jr.? Perhaps. Would it be the robust, broad-based, politically dominant force that it is today? Almost certainly not. When he launched National Review in 1955, Buckley forged a powerful alliance among libertarians, traditionalists, anti-Communists, and other fractious factions of the right, focusing their attention on a single objective: to break the liberal stranglehold on America. Here, two longtime Buckley colleagues place his many accomplishments in their original contexts for a unique view of the man, the journal, and how they shaped the most important political and social movement of the last half century.--From publisher description.
