In recapturing and making sense of the pivotal last decade of the last millennium, this book will serve as a fitting companion to Anderson's beloved and admired The Movement and the Sixties. * H. W. Brands, University of Texas at Austin * This deeply researched book by Professor Terry Anderson, who is renowned as an authority concerning recent American cultural life, politics, and foreign relations, was no surprise. He has been one of the most eloquent writers for many years. * James Patterson, Brown University and author of Grand Expectations and Restless Giant * Everything you ever wanted to know about the 1990s. A flavorful taste of the hash that results when one epic era collides with the next and changes the nation's path. Terry Anderson delivers. * Elizabeth Cobbs, New York Times Bestseller * Author InformationTerry H.
