Mark Shields syndicated columnist; political commentator, "The NewsHour with Jim Lehrer""Gang of Five" is an intriguing chronicle of the human element behind the Right's successful, if hostile, takeover of much of American politics in the last twenty-five years. Scrupulously researched, stylishly written, "Gang of Five" grasps what most infuriates liberals about the ascendant Right -- that it has beaten the Left at its own game. Nina Easton reveals a Right that has made many of the same mistakes that led to the demise of the liberal establishment: scorning compromise, overreaching, pursuing power as a blood sport.
Nina J. Easton is a former staff writer for the Los Angeles Times Sunday Magazine, the Los Angeles Times, and BusinessWeek. The coauthor (with Ronald Brownstein) of the bestseller Reagan's Ruling Class, she has received numerous awards for her reporting work. She lives outside Washington, D.C.
