Did The Declaration Of Independence Commit The United States To A Perpetual Revolution Aimed At Liberating The American PeopleAnd OthersFrom All Inherited Constraints? If AmericaS Framers Were Neither Vile Racists Nor WildEyed Radicals, Were They At Least Good Liberals?They Were In Fact None Of These Things. In On America: How To Understand The Legacy Of 1776, Russell Kirk, One Of The Most Important And Brilliant Thinkers Of The Twentieth Century, Explains That America Is Not An Experiment, But Rather A Particular Expression Of The Entire Western Heritage.
