It was in suburbs such as Garden Grove, Orange County [California] . . . that small groups of middle-class men and women met in their new tract homes, seeking to turn the tide of liberal dominance. Recruiting the like-minded, they organized study groups, opened ‘Freedom Forum’ bookstores, filled the rolls of the John Birch Society, entered school board races, and worked within the Republican Party, all in an urgent struggle to safeguard
their particular vision of freedom and the American heritage. In doing so, they became
the ground forces of a conservative revival—one that transformed conservatism from a
marginal force preoccupied with communism in the early 1960s into a viable electoral
contender by the decade’s end.
