“A shrewd, sparkling politico-cultural history of post-Watergate America . . . [Sandbrook’s] subtle, well-written narrative of wrathful little guys confronting a faltering establishment illuminates a crucial aspect of a time much like our own.� - Publishers Weekly “Starting with Richard Nixon’s resignation in 1974, all the touchstones of the period are detailed . . . Sandbrook lays out just how this discontent found its expression in the emergence of Ronald Reagan and the Republican Right . . . Readers will be rewarded.� - Booklist, "As historians go, [Sandbrook] is a Hugh Grant-level charmer.. . . Mad as Hell is frisky and intelligent; it's among the most readable histories of the 1970s I've come across." -Dwight Garner, The New York Times "Mad as Hell is an entertaining yet substantial book about a wince-inducing era. When it comes to the Seventies, Sandbrook knows the way we were, even if we wish we hadn't been." -Chris Tucker, Dallas Morning News "A terrific read . . . Sandbrook brings the 1970s back to vivid life in Mad as Hell , his entertaining, opinionated take on the politics, economics, and cultural signifiers of a decade he views as the incubator of today's right wing . . . Packed with anecdote and insight." -Carlo Wolff, Christian Science Monitor "First-rate . . . [Sandbrook] is able to view history panoramically, almost as a living, breathing organism, by collecting and effectively using vast numbers of on-the-ground anecdotes. When it comes time for a future Edward Gibbon to explore the decline and fall of the American Republic, it is quite possible that he or she will zero in on the cultural trends and economic upheavals of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. If that is the case, Mad as Hell will be there as a guiding light." -Sasha Abramsky, Columbia Journalism Review "A shrewd, sparkling politico-cultural history of post-Watergate America . . .

Synopsis
"I'm mad as hell, and I'm not going to take it anymore!" The words of Howard Beale, the fictional anchorman in the 1970s hit film Network, struck a chord with a generation of Americans. From the disgrace of Watergate to the humiliation of the Iran hostage crisis, the American Dream seemed to be falling apart. In this magisterial new history, Dominic Sandbrook re-creates the schizophrenic atmosphere of the 1970s, the world of Henry Kissinger and Edward Kennedy, Anita Bryant and Jerry Falwell, Bruce Springsteen and Tom Landry. He takes us back to an age when feminists were on the march and the Communists seemed to be winning the Cold War, but also when a new kind of right-wing populism was transforming American politics from the ground up. Those years gave us organic food, disco music, gas lines, and gay rights-but they also gave us Proposition 13, the neoconservative movement, and the rise of Ronald Reagan. From the killing fields of Vietnam to the mean streets of Manhattan, this is a richly compelling picture of the turbulent age in which our modern-day populist politics was born. For those who remember the days when you could buy a new Ford Mustang II but had to wait hours to fill the tank, this could hardly be a more vivid book. And for those born later, it is the perfect guide to a tortured landscape that shaped our present, from the financial boardroom to the suburban bedroom: the extraordinary world of 1970s America.

The seller packaged the book with care, shipped it quickly, and communicated effectively. This was an great buying experience. Don't hesitate purchasing from this seller.

I reached out to the seller which took a bit of time to receive a response. The book was a good value and it did ship in a bubble envelope which always helps with protecting the books from postal handling/damage.
- d***a (53)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufShipping took a little longer than it initially said but the book still arrived just as described in fantastic condition. I wasn't a huge fan of the packaging though, as it was just wrapped in a simple thin plastic sleeve with zero cushion or padding and I've had books completely destroyed because there was nothing to protect them so if possible I'd like to see the seller provide a safer package when shipping books. But thankfully mine wasn't damaged in transit!STATION HILL BLANCHOT READER, Blanchot, Maurice, 9781886449176 (Nr. 197410139171)
