Leveling Wind: Politics, the Culture and Other News

George Will is the most frequently cited commentator on the conservative point of view. The Leveling Wind is his fifth collection, a compilation of recent columns, previously unpublished speeches and reviews published between 1990 and 1994. As a writer, historian and chronicler, Will assesses the triumphs, misadventures and foibles of the Bush and Clinton presidencies, government institutions and the state of American society. He adds depth to our appreciation of the national scene by including vivid portraits of Americans from the inner city to Capitol Hill who are striving to make a difference, and by recounting memorable stories of his own family life. The Leveling Wind richly illustrates Will's distinctive voice on the state of our nation today.
