Sommario/riassunto |
|
"Lee Edwards is a historian of the conservative movement who has been present at nearly every major event of the modern conservative movement. His memoir reveals his insider account of Barry Goldwater's presidential campaign; how he first interviewed Ronald Reagan when the actor was thinking of running for governor; how he created the Victims of Communism Memorial in Washington, and much more."-- |
