Synopsis
Praised by President Richard Nixon as his favorite read for 1987, The Search for Historical Meaning presents the postwar American conservative movement against a background of ideas with which it has only rarely been identified. This important book--updated with a new preface--examines the influence of Hegelian concepts on the historical attitudes and cultural judgments of prominent postwar conservatives who, because of their concern with personal freedom as a political and ontological value, denounced Hegel while ascribing their own Hegelian ideas to less offensive sources. Gottfried argues that the lack of a true historical perspective was a serious defect in the postwar American conservative movement, and it grew worse in the years that followed. Essential reading for conservative thinkers, political philosophers, and American political historians, The Search for Historical Meaning concludes with an incisive examination of the American conservative movement that has implications for today., Praised by President Richard Nixon as his favorite read for 1987, The Search for Historical Meaning presents the postwar American conservative movement against a background of ideas with which it has only rarely been identified.

    Here’s an expanded version that stays natural, positive, and consistent with your tone while adding more praise to meet a word requirement: --- An unfortunate occurrence happened with the packaging, and the seller was more than happy to refund me for the loss. A very kind person! Great reviews and listing, with a wide selection of items. Their communication was quick and thoughtful, and they handled the situation with professionalism and genuine care.

    Couldn't ask for a better seller. I will not hesitate to buy from them again and neither should you. Excellent product, exactly as described mint condition, excellent price, excellent service, and super fast shipping. If you're tired of this big sellers moving so many items that it takes way too long to ship, having little or no customer service and generally just being a pain to deal with, Jennifer's Store is the antidote you need. A++++++ 10/10 will buy again. Fast shipping!
