Books, Arts & Manners: Enter the Culture Warriors

The De-Valuing of America: The Fight for Our Culture and Our Children, by William J. Bennett (Summit Books; 272 pp., $20)

IT STARTED in October with Jack Kemp making the rounds of the talk shows, explaining patiently why he found his boss guilty of political heresy and, much worse, economic nonsense. It continued in December with Patrick Buchanan declaring his candidacy and, electorally speaking, putting his size 10 ½ Cordovan where he thought it might do some good. And now comes William Bennett with a new book spelling out campaign plans for the culture war.
