I teach high school world history and I picked up a copy of this great little book in our library's discard pile. The first few chapters offer an excellent background to these two opposing political viewpoints. Kronenwetter starts with the Enlightenment and explores how those ideas shaped the American and French Revolutions. Unfortunately, this book was published in 1984 so it does not include more recent information. Mr. Kronenwetter, if you read this, PLEASE update this book and publish a newer addition! Otherwise, this is a great resource for teachers and students. I'm definitely going to share Kronenwetter's information with my class.
