Barry M. (Barry Morris) Goldwater
The conscience of a Conservative
"The Conscience of a Conservative" by Barry M. Goldwater is a book published in 1960 under the name of Arizona Senator Barry Goldwater. Largely ghostwritten by L. Brent Bozell Jr., this 123-page work addresses education, labor unions, civil rights, agricultural policy, social welfare programs, and income taxation. It helped revive the American conservative movement and laid the foundation for the Reagan Revolution. Goldwater explicitly grounds his conservative philosophy in what he calls "laws of God" and "truths of God."
