Extract

Leo Strauss and the Politics of American Empire. By Anne Norton. New Haven: Yale University Press, 2004. 256p. $25.00 cloth, $16.00 paper.

Anne Norton's book combines analysis of texts, which can be checked, with oral history or gossip, which cannot. Norton also shares her opinions and judgments about U.S. foreign policy. The mixed nature of the book makes for a difficult academic review.
