Summary: "Conservative domination of American life may or may not be ending, but among some circles, nostalgia for Ronald Reagan will likely linger. Busch's compact, celebratory account reminds readers how the Right came to power in the first place."-The Historian "A very good, comprehensive, useful book on the 1980 election."-Reviews in American History "The 1980 election remade not only American politics and American government, but America itself. That is Andrew Busch's striking argument. And his graceful narrative does a fine job of telling us just how it happened."-Claremont Review of Books "An illuminating investigation of this key contest, which brought Reagan and the Republican Party's conservative wing to power. Busch offers an admiring but fair appraisal of Reagan's victory over a hapless Jimmy Carter. . . . [He] succeeds admirably in providing an election analysis that is concise and informative."-ForeWord Magazine "An exciting new review of America's march into the new age of Ronald Reagan."-Washington Times. |
