Gang of Five

A major contribution to contemporary history that explains how we arrived at the politics of today. In Gang of Five, bestselling author Nina J. Easton reveals the hidden history of American politics in the last thirty years. It's the story of the other, less well-known segment of the baby-boom generation: young conservative activists who arrived on campus in the 1970s in rebellion against everything "sixties" and went on to overturn the political dynamics of our country. Gang of Five focuses on the lives and careers of five major figures: Bill Kristol; Ralph Reed; Clint Bolick; Grover Norquist; David McIntosh.
