Summary
In a deeply personal celebration of liberalism, the popular humorist and radio host examines the 'politics of kindness,' offering a series of nostalgic reminiscences, meditations, and observations on the core values--the defense of the powerless, the protection of the social compact, and maintaining government as a force for good--of the democratic ideal. Reprint. 75,000 first printing.
