Continetti seems less interested in the numbers of politics than in its ideas, and the tension between them is the driving force of The Right.

The Right: The Hundred Year War for American Conservatism paints a messier, and for that reason far more accurate, portrait of 20th- and 21st-century American conservatism.

Although Continetti steers clear of insider gossip, his description of life in the conservative machine has the feel of an eyewitness account.

Though Continetti overstates Trump’s successes and dubiously claims that 1960s leftists 'celebrated' the violence of the decade as 'just, necessary, and beneficial,' this is a worthy analysis of how free market policies and nativist populism make for a potent political mix..

Sturdy account of the many divisions within modern conservatism, divisions that have been growing over a century.
