About
Few people can grasp how American politics reached its current complexity, but Heather Cox Richardson uses her direct and approachable style, and brilliant academic background as a historian, to make sense of this country’s past, present, and future. Her book Democracy Awakening: Notes on the State of America, traces our lost histories to discover how we became who we are today.
