Reviews

In this expertly curated edition of Burke's Reflections, Brian Clack makes a convincing, well-researched, and beautifully written case against the view that Burke's political views changed drastically with the penning of the Reflections--that he was once the defender of liberty and reform, and suddenly became a reactionary defender of the monarchical status quo. Clack's introduction is masterful--beautifully written, balanced, and well researched. Nearly every anticipation I felt as I read was met, as Clack has both an understanding of the scholarship on Burke and a writing style that takes the reader down a winding path, unveiling insights that the reader hopes are just around the next turn. -- Seth Vannatta, Morgan State University
