One of the strengths of this book is its ability to inspire readers to seek out the works that Regnery discusses. As the reviewer, I was motivated to explore these older works that provided a more nuanced and contemporary understanding of historical events. One example is "God and Man at Yale," which Regnery published in 1951, and which still resonates today in the ongoing debate about free speech on college campuses.
