Big Fat Conpendium of Buckley's 1960's

I got the paperback edition of this book when in junior high and read it until the binding fell apart. I didn't understand all of it, of course, but I was enthralled by the wit and elan of Buckley's prose. This book is a large compilation of Buckley's writing during the late 1960's. Thus it forms a sort of counter-history of that tumultuous time. Included is the hard-to-find long article "On Experiencing Gore Vidal" which lifted their feud to a whole new level. "The Governor Listeth" is essential reading for serious students of that era of history--you will learn where the Reagan revolution came from.
