Sleepwalking Through History: America in the Reagan Years - Haynes Johnson
In this brilliantly readable book, a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist chronicles the Reagan decade, when America fell from dominant world power to struggling debtor nation and when optimism turned to foreboding. 32 illustrations. \n \nIt is morning again in America, Reagan's campaign commercials told us, and for too long we embraced that convenient lie. Indeed, the problems that came to plague us in that decade are with us even more today, as Johnson memorably demonstrates in--his afterword, Notes on an Era, written especially for this new paperback reissue. This book will remain a signature work of political analysis for years to come.\n
