## Description

"The Conservative Mind: From Burke to Eliot" by Russell Kirk is arguably one of the greatest contributions to twentieth-century American Conservatism. Brilliant in every respect, from its conception to its choice of significant figures representing the history of intellectual conservatism, "The Conservative Mind" launched the modern American Conservative Movement. A must-read. (Abridged)

Review: Masterpiece difficult for non-native speakers - It is literally impossible or, more precisely, worthless to review such blueprints as "The Conservative Mind". So I'd better warn my fellow non-native speakers that Kirk's language is not easily understood. I mean, the main ideas he delivers are more or less clear, but some details are really hard to catch. And, who knows, maybe the Devil himself is hiding there waiting for you.
Review: Good writer, bad communicator - Kirk is a "good writer" but an appalling communicator. Instead of just saying what he has to say, clearly and simply, his passages read as if they were a puzzle to be solved. Fancy words, obscure references, half-made hints and suggestions - it quickly becomes irritating. I get the feeling that Kirk wants to impress us with his intellect. But any writer that leads with his ego is in trouble, and this is a fine example.

### ⭐⭐ Good writer, bad communicator

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ History about conservatives written by a conservative.
*by F***B on February 25, 2017*

A book about the history of conservatives written by a conservative. I learned a lot about the conservatives political philosophy and where it affected the Constitution and how far today's conservatives have strayed from their forefathers. Very educational. Even for a Democratic Socialist.
