Review
An anthology of some of its best essays on literature, history, fine arts, theater, music, and world affairs.--Thomas Meaney "New York Sun "
This book is something of an omnium gatherum.--Raymond Carr "The Spectator "
Not so much ideologically pure as it is critically pure. Quality governs...Everyone else, get this book. It will enrich you.--Roger L. Simon "Pajama's Media "
The sheer range and variety of the essays in this volume is, of course, a tribute to the catholicity of the editors, Hilton Kramer and Roger Kimball, who between them have a detailed knowledge and acute feelings about most of the glories of our culture, as well as strictly disciplined detestation of trends and individuals that disgrace it. They make an unusually well-matched team, and both make characteristic contributions to this volume.--Paul Johnson, Bowling Green State University "The American Spectator "
Counterpoints has a little something for everyone. Recommended.--Ohio Conservative
