Kathryn S. Olmsted, Right Out of California

September 4, 2023. From the archives: Tuesday at 2 PM I present a rebroadcast of my 2017 Bibliocracy Radio show with Kathryn S. Olmsted, author of Right Out of California: The 1930s and the Big Business Roots of Modern Conservatism.

“Olmstead’s vivid, accomplished narrative really belongs to the historiography of the left . . . as her strong research shows, race and gender prejudice informed, or deformed, almost the whole of American social and cultural life in the 1930s and was as common on the left as on the right.” —The New York Times Book Review
