A powerful and necessary corrective to the idea that US liberalism simply sputtered out with the elections of Nixon and Reagan.

Delton, author of Making Minnesota Liberal: Civil Rights and the Transformation of the Democratic Party

A powerful and necessary corrective to the idea that US liberalism simply sputtered out with the elections of Nixon and Reagan. Engaging and smart, Andelic shows the persistent power of congressional liberalism in the 1970s, '80s, and beyond. --Jennifer A. Delton, author of Making Minnesota Liberal: Civil Rights and the Transformation of the Democratic Party A deeply researched and stylishly executed study that brings post-Great Society politics vividly to life. I know of no other book that comes close in terms of conveying both the travail and the resilience of progressive politics during the 1970s and 1980s. --Gareth Davies, associate professor of American history, St. Anne's College, Oxford University
