ITEM OVERVIEW
Alexander is a journalist. A fine investigative journalist. And a political commentator. Astute, and sharp, for sure. And he possesses a fine literary mind. But above all, he's a writer. And it's a joy to read, and be inspired, and fired, and amused, and antagonized too, for sure, by his words. Well worth it. And of course, it stands the test of time. "In The Golden Age Is In Us, Cockburn reveals an intimacy, warmth and tenderness....The book is, at the least, literature. It chronicles Cockburn's view of everyday life. It reveals its doubts, affirmations, tyrannies, joys and sorrows and, more than that, reveals how his thought, in its amazing consistency, feeds into the culture and from it." —Detroit Metro Times
