Winston Churchill and the Salvation of Free Government

"A masterpiece of political philosophy and practical statesmanship...the one book on Winston Churchill that every undergraduate, every graduate student, every professional historian, and every member of the literate general public should read....Beautifully written."  --Lewis E. Lehrman, cofounder of the Lincoln and Soldiers Institute at Gettysburg College and distinguished director of the Abraham Lincoln Association

No statesman shaped the twentieth century more than Winston Churchill. To know Churchill is to understand the combinations of boldness and caution, assertiveness and humility, that define statesmanship at its best. With fresh perspective and insights based on decades of studying and teaching Churchill, Larry P. Arnn explores the greatest challenges faced by Churchill, both in war and in peacetime, in the context of Churchill's abiding devotion to constitutionalism.

"Shows that Churchill, often perceived as inconsistent and opportunist, was in fact philosophically rigorous and consistent at levels...higher and deeper than his detractors are capable of imagining." --Mark Helprin, New York Times bestselling author of Winter's Tale and In Sunlight and in Shadow

"Lively...artfully reminds us that Churchill was not just the greatest statesman and war leader of the twentieth century, but also a pragmatic and circumspect thinker whose wisdom resonates on every issue of our times." --Victor Davis Hanson, senior fellow, The Hoover Institution, Stanford University

"Intelligent, thought-provoking, and well-written"--Andrew Roberts, The Claremont Review of Books

The Political Theory of Thomas Jefferson

Author of the Declaration of Independence, diplomat in France, leader of the opposition to the Federalists in the 1790s, president of the United States from 1801 to 1809, critical conscience of the country until his death on July 4, 1826, Thomas Jefferson is the most widely studied, fascinating and genuinely representative Founding Father of the entire age, a classical liberal "philosopher-king" that America produced in the birth throes of the Republic. Bassani surveys Jefferson's views in the twofold articulation-the rights of man and state's rights-that represents the core of all his political ideas. While recent scholarship on the subject tends to portray a union devotee, non individualistic, anti property rights Jefferson, with possible communitarian, if not even protosocialist undertones, this work will do Jefferson justice. After careful examination of his political theory, the readers will recognise the third president as a champion of limited government, natural rights, and antagonism of the states towards interference by federal powers.
