A Gift of Freedom: How the John M. Olin Foundation Changed America
John Miller

John Olin was an industrialist who used his wealth to fund conservative projects like the Heritage Foundation and the Federalist Society in the latter part of the twentieth century. He is the topic of “A Gift of Freedom: How the John M. Olin Foundation Changed America,” a new book by author John Miller. It looks at how Mr. Olin’s foundation used hundreds of millions of dollars to spread the conservative movement throughout universities, media, and government.

John Miller's articles have appeared in the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, and the New Republic. He is a national political reporter for the National Review and the author of "The Unmaking of Americans" and "Our Oldest Enemy: A History of America's Disastrous Relationship with France."
