- Summary
- William F. Buckley Jr. is widely regarded as the most influential American conservative writer, activist, and organizer in the postwar era.

Including many rarely seen photographs, this account of one of the most compelling personalities of American politics will appeal to conservatives, liberals, and even the apolitical
