Focusing on the elections of 1980, 1982, and 1984, Mansfield critiques contemporary conservatism for its ignorance of the political theory implicit in the Constitution.
"Provides `food for thought' for both `left' and `right,' and in particular for the American citizens about whom this book is concerned."--Bradley A. Kletscher, Constitutional Commentary.

"Harvey C. Mansfield displays his formidable intellectualism and classical scholarship in support of the proposition that the American constitution possesses a formal truth drawn from its foundations and exerted through its development... In what is a provocatively trenchant book, Mansfield takes relish in propelling his readers down the rats' maze of liberal arguments supporting a conservative outlook. Herein lies the real soul of American politics." -- Political Studies
"Provides 'food for thought' for both 'left' and 'right,' and in particular for the American citizens about whom this book is concerned." -- Bradley A. Kletscher, Constitutional Commentary
The essays are deeply reflective, bear on an important common issue, and advance a fruitful, if currently neglected, method of interpreting both the Constitution and departures from it.
