This is a critical analysis of the history of the American Civil
Liberties Union and at the same time the history of American
liberalism in the twentieth century. It represents the first
published account of the ACLU's record. Other works on the
organization either dealt only with specific issues or have been
simply journalistic accounts. Donohue provides the first systematic
analysis by a social scientist. This book is directed at those
interested in the history of American liberalism and, no less, the
history of American conservatism, for ideological struggle within
the United States touches directly on civil libertarian concerns.
The work is especially significant for American constitutional
lawyers, political scientists, and for those concerned with serious
ideas in American life. Supporters as well as critics of the ACLU
will be attracted to this work for different reasons. It is
unquestionably the most serious work now available and is likely to
remain the touchstone for any such work for many years to come.
