"I've never read a book quite like George Packer's Blood of the Liberals. More than a learned history and revealing memoir, it's also an unsentimental but deeply felt love letter to the father he barely knew and the grandfather he never met. Packer shows American liberals where we've been and where we must go by sharing his story-a story that is heartbreaking, hopeful, and beautifully drawn."-George Stephanopoulos
"Here is a family's story that tells us so very much about America, and about idealism as it engages, at a cost, with politics, a book that will teach all of us so very much about our nation's history."-Robert Coles
"With thoughtful compassion and scrupulous decency, George Packer has written a stunningly honest, *necessary* memoir of his family, which doubles as a political history of the last hundred years. Parts of it have the absorbing quality of a murder mystery or a horror film: you cringe at the collision of good intentions and bad judgment, wanting to yell out to the participants "No! don't!"-only to realize their confusions mirror uncannily your own. An admirable work of conscience and literary art."-Philip Lopate
