Lots and lots of heady things were going on in the Summer of 1960. Tomorrow, subscribers to NROriginals will enjoy a nice selection of three pieces from the August 13, 1960 issue of NR. Two of the cover articles – L. Brent Bozell’s very smart take on Barry Goldwater’s political stature following the Republican National Convention, and Philippa Schuyler’s special report on the Congo Crisis – will be included, as will a very perceptive essay by economist David McCord Wright: He warns that in a Kennedy Administration, John Kenneth Galbraith will indeed seek to impoverish the Affluent Society. That’s a great line-up, and if you haven’t yet signed up for NROriginals, you must and can do so at www.nationalreview.com/newsletters. It’s free, as are all our newsletters – Morning Jolt, The Goldberg File, and NRO Digest.
