Publisher Description

When it was first published, The Conscience of a Conservative reignited the American conservative movement and made Barry Goldwater a political star. It influenced countless conservatives in the United States and helped to lay the foundation for the Reagan Revolution in 1980.

Just as vital today as it was then, this book addresses many topics that could be torn from today's headlines. Goldwater discusses education, labor unions and policies, civil rights, agricultural policy and farm subsidies, social welfare programs, and income taxation. This significant book lays out the conservative position both politically and economically that would come to dominate the Conservative Movement in America.

Quotes

    " Pretty good book. It is a quick splattering of conservative views. I agree with some points but disagree with a lot of what he has said -federal government should be involved in education, agree with welfare programs, disagree with his ideas about how to handle soviet union by and large. "
