The Souls of American Folk

Enough: The Phony Leaders, Dead-End Movements, and Culture of Failure That Are Undermining Black America-and What We Can Do About It, by Juan Williams (Crown, 256 pp., $25)

I DOUBT Juan Williams likes the company he seems to be keeping these days. His new book, Enough, appears to be selling well. But get on Amazon and look at its list of other books bought by the readers who have purchased Enough. Among the authors are Ann Coulter, Patrick Buchanan, and Shelby Steele-hardly his crowd.
