Book Synopsis

Presents a narrative history of the 1988 US election that draws from untapped archival sources and revealing oral history interviews to uncover just how consequential this moment was for American politics. Robert Fleegler delivers an engaging review of an election that set a template for the political dynamics that define our lives to this day.

Trade Review

Academics . . . have largely ignored the [1988 election], focusing instead on the more significant and realigning elections of 1980 and 1992. . . . Fleegler sets out to change that view, and in doing so offers an essential reassessment of the neglected contest."—Jacobin
