Landmarknstudy ofnliberalismnWhere it comes from.nThe many faces It wears.nAnd why it is stillnthe menacen”Communism isn’t the enemy,” observed Malcolm Muggeridge.n”Liberalism is the enemy.”nWhen Muggeridge said that, Communism was riding high. NownCommunism is in crisis, while liberalism continues to choke religionnand civilization. Muggeridge saw the heart of the problem. Communismnwas an external threat; liberalism not only corrupts fromnwithin, but also masquerades as something good.nErik von Kuehnelt-Leddihn is of the same mind. He sets his sights onnthe Left in all its manffestations. He’s been doing that for 60 years.nThe range of his reading, his travel, his vision carries him across thenglobe, and across the centuries. The world is tmly his oyster.nAnd now, the new book that WflBam Buckley righH)’ caDs “his masterpiece.”nAdds conservative cokimnist Joseph Sobraic “I despair of doingnjustice to the book’s wealth of oddly enlightening fact, the harvest of kingnexperience, reading, and tiaveL”nPrecisely. Kuehnelt-Leddihn’s view of the Left, in all its guises, is atnonce so particular and detailed, and at the same time so sweeping, tiiatnreading him is a unique experience, mind-opening. Max Eastinanncaptured the feeling perfiectiy after reading one of his earlier books:n”Amazing! Readiiig it is like going to coUe^ and graduate school allnover again.”nHow the Club WorksnEvery 4 wedts (13 times a year) you get a fiee copy of the Chib Bulletin which rffeis younthe Featured Sdection phis a good choice cf Alternates — all of interest to conservatives.n•k If you want the Featured Sdection, do nothing; it will come automatically. • If youndon’t want the Featured Selection, or you do want an Alternate, indicate your wishes onnthe handy card endosed with your Bulletin and return it by the deadline date. -* Thenmigority d Club books will be offered at 20-SO’7o discounts, phis a charge for shippingnand handling, -k As soon as you buy and pay for 3 bodes at regular Club prices, yournmembership may be ended at any time, dther by you or by the Chib. -k If you evernreceive a Featured Selection without having had 10 days to decide if you want it, you maynreturn it at Chib expense for fill credit. • Good service.
