A highly esteemed historian reflects on the dangerous descent of democracy into populism&;particularly in the United States.
Democracy has changed substantially since the second World War, evolving into a dangerous and possibly irreversible populism, says John Lukacs in this intensely interesting&;and troubling&;book. The esteemed historian offers biting, timely, and controversial observations on the power of the media and the precarious state of American democracy today.

"In taking up Tocqueville&;s theme, democracy in America, our most perceptive and far-ranging historian corrects many misconceptions about the recent past and deals commandingly with this country&;s zeal to implant our blend of freedoms abroad. He will arouse thought as he always does and stir the emotions more than usual."&;Jacques Barzun

"Lukacs is indisputably one of the English language&;s greatest&;and most idiosyncratic&;historians. . . . This is a wonderful book to chew on. . . . For the intelligent and historically literate general reader, this may well be a great joy."&;Jonah Goldberg, National Review
