The Nation is neither as incendiary as its critics (e.g. William L. O'Neill) would have it, nor as prescient (it totally missed on the recent Nicaraguan elections) as its boosters would suggest, but it has been, for 125 years, the preeminent voice of American left-liberalism, occasionally (as in the included essay by Emma Goldman) rising above its own agenda to achieve true radical stature. This anthology of essays (political and cultural), poetry, cartoons and drawings presents the magazine at its best as an essential consciousness and conscience. Published by Thunder's Mouth Press, 54 Greene Street, Suite 4S, New York, NY 10013. (RC) Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
