Focuses on the works of conservative American writers and of others who have written of America from a conservative perspective. Beginning with the work of Edgar Allan Poe, the book explores the traditionalist temper in books by Vachel Lindsay, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Alfred Hitchcock, V.S. Naipaul, and Kent Haruf. It offers a fresh examination of a neglected but significant aspect of American culture.
