A propos de cet article

SIGNED and warmly inscribed by the author to David and Eleanor Sacks. David was a noted British Historian at Reed College in Portland, Oregon and a longtime personal friend of 'Sig'. First Printing with complete number line. ix, 371pp. 8vo, sewn binding in blue paper over boards backed in red cloth with gilt stamped spine lettering.

He focuses primarily on Harvard and Yale, in order to trace in some detail their long decades of covert cooperation. . Diamond's research makes Buckley's charges of 'ultra-liberalism' in *God and Man at Yale* look like a well-calculated deception.' (Paul Buhle review in 'History of Education Quarterly'.). …
