"What Buckley has is a sort of sparkle and grace, equally in his speaking, writing, and television appearances…Free minds are desperately rare and precious, and in him I detect one."
Malcolm Muggeridge
"[Buckley was] an instant darling of conservatives who needed a spirited new voice."
Publishers Weekly
"As ever, sheer delight from humor and prose, whatever the political faith."
John Kenneth Galbraith
