Progressives in America
Brinkley is a keen observer of modern history. This closely related set of essays encourages the reader to ponder what exactly is meant by liberalism in the U.S. historical context. Starting off as a very readable intellectual history of an idea, it closes with an appeal to fellow historians to take greater responsibility for fostering intellectual discussion about history, and its uses, among the greater public. Chapters on Huey Long (and his legacy) and Oral Roberts (and his legacy) were most fascinating.
