After having worked at a couple of small newspapers in mid-Missouri and having dealt with publication renewals for a couple of libraries on the other side of the phone line, this title intrigued me. Conservative writer and public figure, William F. Buckley Jr., kept a file of what he considered the most interesting letters to the editor from the National Review. As the founder, publisher and editor-in-chief he had access to all of these letters. Here is his collection of these letters often with his reply. Sometimes funny, sometimes biting and rarely politically correct, this is a brief window into the 1970s and 1980 news and politics. With letters from Ronald Reagan, Richard Nixon, Auberon Waugh, John Kenneth Galbraith and Arthur Schlesinger Jr.
