Book summary


In this memoir, a writer examines the liberal tradition embodied, in different ways, by his maternal grandfather, an agrarian liberal and Congressman from Alabama, and by his father, a Kennedy liberal of the 1960s. Packer seeks to find the place of the liberal strain in American life in his own time.


Media reviews


"Packer nicely threads the day-to-day decisions of his father and grandfather with the larger ideas that possessed them."
