Gerhart Niemeyer, who taught government at the University of Notre Dame for several decades, was one of the foremost conservative political theorists of the twentieth century. He was the author of seminal books and articles exploring the nature of Communist ideology, classical and modern political theory, foreign policy, Christianity, the relation between faith and philosophy, the philosophy of history, and education. This definitive, handsomely produced family biography introduces readers to the eventful lives of the German-born Gerhart Niemeyer, his wife Lucie, and their illustrious ancestors. This sewn cloth bound edition, richly illustrated and printed on superior gloss paper, makes it an excellent gift or collector copy.
