Overview

Politics is a machine that will forever run on division. This division is the nature of robust, democratic, and pluralist political systems. However, disagreement does not necessarily need to lead to disagreeability.This is an idea that seems to be largely forgotten by vast swathes of both sides of the political aisle. William F. Buckley Jr.'s Guide to Friendship in a Polarized Era seeks to indirectly address this gulf and to assist in promulgating the idea that lifelong and rewarding friendships are possible under the conditions of political and ideological differences. And how civility can be returned to our society.

Reviews

"Josh Cohen’s new book, William F. Buckley, Jr.’s Guide to Friendship in a Polarized Era: Lessons in Civility is a must read for those of us who care about the future of our nation, our children, and grandchildren." —Oliver North, Retired USMC LtCol and author

 

“As many in my generation and in the Conservative camp, I attribute much of my stand and passion to see America’s founding principles preserved to the monumental work of William F. Buckley, Jr. His knowledge and intellect set the standard for what is today’s Right. Josh Cohen’s book, William F. Buckley Jr.'s Guide to Friendship in a Polarized Era, details Buckley’s other major contribution in his ability to converse with many across the political spectrum. This book could be the cure for the polarity currently fracturing Conservatism. Get it, read it, and share its message with those around you, especially with those you know on the Left.” —Jim DeMint, former U.S. Senator and prolific author of What the Bible Really Says
