Trade Review
Timothy Bowman expands and often upends existing histories by locating the early culture wars not in coastal campuses and think tanks but in Hereford, a small town in the Texas Panhandle. The themes of controversy and speech, patriotism and protest, outrage and offense, that are the political oxygen of the early twenty-first century all appear here, near fully formed, in the High Plains of 1974." - Jason Mellard, author of Progressive Country: How the 1970s Transformed the Texan in Popular Culture
