Crisis of the Strauss Divided: Essays on Leo Strauss and Straussianism, East and West

The Crisis of the Strauss Divided is a comprehensive collection of Harry Jaffa's published arguments defending and explaining his judgment that Leo Strauss (1899-1973) was the greatest mind in political philosophy in the twentieth century.

This volume includes an extensive unpublished essay, "Straussian Geography: A Memoir and Commentary," as well as a variety of arguments from Jaffa's published works over the past 40 years.

The book explores the implications of Strauss's thinking for America and modern civilization, and provides a detailed explanation of why a defense of Lincoln and the Founders is consistent with political philosophy.
