Looking for America: A journey into the country's divided heart (Kindle Single)
The 2016 election is unlike any that we've seen before. The campaign has seen the rise of Donald Trump, the New York provocateur who has seized the Republican Party from its bewildered establishment, who has seized an angry electorate. What's happening in America? What does it mean to be American? For nearly 35 days, Washington Post journalists crossed the nation looking for answers, chronicling them in this book.
Washington Post reporters David Maraniss and Robert Samuels traveled the country, attending rallies in airport hangars and high school gymnasiums, followed canvassers rounding up votes, observed Rotary Club breakfasts and fraternity-house debate-watch parties and morning coffee klatches and church sermons and sidewalk picket lines. All along the way, they listened to people talk in divergent ways about idealism and pragmatism and their concepts of America and what it means to be an American.
