Irvine -- Orange County was once the center of a new social movement, one
that led to the Reagan presidency. So says Lisa McGirr, a historian at
Harvard, and the author of a new book, "Suburban Warriors," about the
emergence in Orange County in the 1960s of committed conservatives who
organized a social movement that enabled Ronald Reagan to win the
presidency two decades later. McGirr will be the guest on Subversity, a public affairs interview program, on KUCI, 88.9 fm in Orange County, brodcasting today, Friday, July 6, 2001, from 5-6 p.m., and Web-cast simultaneously via kuci.org.
Her new book, which focuses on Orange County, and its history of Republican conservative activism, is published by Princeton University Press. The university press web-site, pup.princeton.edu/titles/7031.html, offers a link to the full-text of the book's introductory chapter.
