During and especially after World War II, a group of leading scholars who had been perilously close to the war’s devastation joined others fortunate enough to have been protected by distance in an effort to redefine and reinvigorate liberal ideals for a radically new age. Treating evil as an analytical category, they sought to discover the sources of twentieth-century horror and the potentialities of the modern state in the wake of desolation. In the process, they devised strikingly new ways to understand politics, sociology, and history that reverberate still. In this major intellectual history, Ira Katznelson examines the works of Hannah Arendt, Robert Dahl, Richard Hofstadter, Harold Lasswell, Charles Lindblom, Karl Polanyi, and David Truman, detailing their engagement with the larger project of reclaiming the West’s moral bearing. In light of their epoch’s calamities, these intellectuals insisted that the tradition of Enlightenment thought required a new realism, a good deal of renovation, and much recommitment. This array of historians, political philosophers, and social scientists understood that a simple reassertion of liberal modernism had been made radically insufficient by the enormities and moral catastrophes of war, totalitarianism, and the Holocaust. Confronting dashed hopes for reason and knowledge, they asked not just whether the Enlightenment should define modernity but also which Enlightenment we should wish to have.

America finds herself perilously weak, her economy in shambles, her dollar worthless, her military gutted, and her citizens demoralized and divided. Leftist politicians are kept in office by millions who have been promised free food, housing, and health care. At the same time, these venial politicians, with their failed ideas, continue to show contempt both for the Constitution they've sworn to defend and for the hard-working Americans they've exploited to promote their agendas. Tragically, the politicians responsible for this mess have also been supporting America's enemies, and several nations - like vultures circling wounded prey - are about to invade the United States. In the meantime, the politicians have embarked on a program to destroy anyone who threatens their plans or makes them look or feel guilty. Their first step is to neutralize those of faith who have historically fought for freedom - Christians and Jews. The powers that be have embarked on a program to silence potential enemies, particularly one man. While running for his life, he is injured in an auto accident and awakens in a hospital, his memory gone. War's Desolation traces this man's desperate efforts to survive the war, discover his identity, and resist America's invaders. The Chronicles of CC have been described by readers as a realistic, almost-prophetic picture of what might overtake America in the near future, and a must-read for anyone interested in the de-Christianization of America.
