Book excerpt: He boldly compares the conservative intellectual movement to the radical Utopians among the New Left of the 1960s; and he explains how conservatism has ingested central features of American culture, including a distrust of sophistication and intellectualism and a love of popular culture, sensation, shock, and celebrity." "Both a work of history and political criticism, Rebels All! shows how the conservative mind made itself appealing but also points to its inherent problems."--BOOK JACKET.
