A recent issue contained five essays including one on the challenges of raising a generation of young boys in single parent families without the benefit of male role models and another essay on the Federalists. This issue also consisted of more than twenty book reviews such as one by William F. Buckley, Jr. on TREASON: LIBERAL TREACHERY FROM THE COLD WAR TO THE WAR ON TERRORISM by Ann Coulter.
The contributors to the magazine are almost exclusively academics except for those writing letters in the CORRESPONDENCE section. CLAREMONT REVIEW OF BOOKS is a lively journal written in a highly readable style. I expect it will fill a necessary niche for political conservatives for at least the foreseeable future.
