The exciting new exploration of American history – and how it has led to the era of Donald Trump – by the award-winning political journalist.
"The perfect antidote to the raw aggression of our times" – Justin Webb, host of Americast.
"Sharp, entertaining, and informative" – Guardian.
Trump's second term, more than the first, is often described as "unprecedented." But history shows that Trump's policies and actions are as American as the metropolitan pie… Many of Donald Trump's actions seem bold and even irrational. His actions and political statements represent a sharp break from the American leadership style we've experienced all our lives. Many people – on both sides of the Atlantic – have argued that he will destroy the country's democracy. But, whether we like it or not, his trade tariffs, insistence on deporting tens of thousands of people, and apparent disregard for the law are deeply rooted in American history.
"Made in America" shows how the ideal of freedom has been tested in previous generations, from the first unaccepting pilots to the brutal invasion of Mexico, and reveals the dark side of the American dream to offer urgent lessons for our turbulent present.
