276: Conservatism in America since 1930: A Reader by Gregory Schneider

(During the month of September I'm recommending conservative titles with which every well-read progressive should be familiar.)

Conservatism in America since 1930: A Reader

If I were teaching a seminar in conservative political philosophy in the United States this book would be required reading. Readers like this provide a wide range of essays and excerpts to introduce readers to the topic.

Why this is libertarian/conservative: This collection includes conservative thinkers from Russell Kirk to Milton Friedman, from Pat Buchanan to F. A. Hayek. A reader like this is exactly where you want to start if you want to learn about conservatism in America.
