Isserman's Book Listed in the National Review

William R. Kenan Jr. Professor of History Maurice Isserman's book, "America Divided: The Civil War of the Sixties," is listed in a Jan. 24 article in the National Review titled, "A Right Man's Left-Hand Library," written by editor-at-large Jonah Goldberg.  The article's focus is to recommend the best books on the history of liberalism in America from the writer's perspective. 

Isserman co-authored "America Divided" with Georgetown University professor Michael Kazin.  The book surveys the political, social and cultural impact of the 1960s on life today.  According to Oxford University Press, "It takes the reader on a tour of the turbulent decade, examining what did and did not change in the 1960s and exploring why American culture and politics have never been the same since." 

Isserman has written several books including, "If I had a Hammer: The Death of the Old Left and the Birth of a New Left" (1987).
