Why read it?

1 author picked An American Melodrama as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Outsiders sometimes see us better than we can see ourselves. Such is the case with the three British journalists who covered the tumultuous 1968 presidential campaign that took place during a year of assassinations, civil unrest, and war. Their account detected fault lines in the political system that still emperil us today but also reminds us that—however much we may wring our hands today—we’ve survived more perilous times. 

From Patrick's list on presidential campaigns.
