Book Description
The executive Washington editor of The Wall Street Journal chronicles the astonishing rise, climax, and decline of one of the great political movements in American history—the forty-year reign of the conservative movement, from the election of Ronald Reagan to the Republican Party's takeover by Donald Trump—with a new introduction covering the 2020 election and the future of the GOP “Ably captures the most consequential American political developments in half a century.” —Peggy Noonan In 1980, President-Elect Ronald Reagan ushered in conservatism as the most powerful political force in America. For four decades, New Deal liberalism had been the country’s dominant motif, creating such popular programs as Social Security and Medicare, but it had become creaky in the face of soaring inflation, high unemployment, and a growing sense that the United States was no longer the dominant force on the world stage. Reagan's efforts to reshape the government with tax cuts, deregulation, increased military spending, and a more conservative social policy faltered at first. But the economy roared back, and the Reagan revolution was on. In We Should Have Seen It Coming, veteran journalist Gerald F. Seib shows how this conservative movement came to dominate national politics, then began to evolve into the populist movement that Donald Trump rode to power. Conservative institutions including the Heritage Foundation, the National Rifle Association, Americans for Tax Reform, Rush Limbaugh and Fox News gave the conservative movement a support system, paving the way for Newt Gingrich's Contract with America and George W. Bush's compassionate conservatism. But we also see multiple warning signs, many overlooked or misread, that a populist revolution was brewing. Pat Buchanan, Ross Perot, Sarah Palin, and the Tea Party—all were precursors of the Trump takeover. With behind-the-scenes anecdotes, Seib explains how Trump capitalized on that populist movement to victory in 2016, then began breaking from conservative orthodoxy once in office. He shows how Trump altered Republican relations with the business world, shattered conservative precepts on trade and immigration and challenged America’s long-standing alliances. This scintillating work of journalism brings new insight to the most important political story of our time.

Book Description
Rick Potter, his three sons, and his second wife Cheryl live an idyllic life in sunny Southern California. Rick is a successful film editor, a car collector, and the owner of a beautiful family home, but little does he know that this is all about to change. When the eldest son, Nate, allows his fiancé Kendra to move in without Rick and Cheryl’s consent, things start to get messy. Prone to fits of rage, irrational demands, and shooting any cat with the unfortunate luck of wandering into the backyard, Kendra is a human powder keg, and she works hard at turning Nate against his own family. She also introduces other colorful characters into the fray, such as her deviant son, Bryan, as well as Rosie, her larger-than-life mother. Down on her luck and short on cash, Rosie devises a plan to rob the Potters blind with the help of two bumbling thieves. Drawn to the mess like sharks to blood, Bryan’s ex-con father comes back into the picture, as well as Tara, Rick’s lustful and manipulative ex-wife. With all of this trouble brewing on the horizon, Rick realizes too late that he should have seen it coming; now, a woman is dead, and there is no shortage of suspects, most of whom are family. In this darkly funny drama, Rick Tuber brings us the story of the ultimate dysfunctional family. The narration is sharp and humorous, compelling you to laugh at the characters as much as you dread the consequences of their selfish choices and hapless actions. At its heart, Should Have Seen It Coming is a clever, cautionary tale about the tragedy that grows out of stupidity, greed, and revenge—but you can rest assured that you will chuckle the whole way through.

Book Description
Peter Bogdanovich, known primarily as a director, film historian and critic, has been working with professional actors all his life. He started out as an actor (he debuted on the stage in his sixth-grade production of Finian’s Rainbow); he watched actors work (he went to the theater every week from the age of thirteen and saw every important show on, or off, Broadway for the next decade); he studied acting, starting at sixteen, with Stella Adler (his work with her became the foundation for all he would ever do as an actor and a director). Now, in his new book, Who the Hell’s in It, Bogdanovich draws upon a lifetime of experience, observation and understanding of the art to write about the actors he came to know along the way; actors he admired from afar; actors he worked with, directed, befriended. Among them: Lauren Bacall, Humphrey Bogart, James Cagney, John Cassavetes, Charlie Chaplin, Montgomery Clift, Marlene Dietrich, Henry Fonda, Ben Gazzara, Audrey Hepburn, Boris Karloff, Dean Martin, Marilyn Monroe, River Phoenix, Sidney Poitier, Frank Sinatra, and James Stewart. Bogdanovich captures—in their words and his—their work, their individual styles, what made them who they were, what gave them their appeal and why they’ve continued to be America’s iconic actors. On Lillian Gish: “the first virgin hearth goddess of the screen . . . a valiant and courageous symbol of fortitude and love through all distress.” On Marlon Brando: “He challenged himself never to be the same from picture to picture, refusing to become the kind of film star the studio system had invented and thrived upon—the recognizable human commodity each new film was built around . . . The funny thing is that Brando’s charismatic screen persona was vividly apparent despite the multiplicity of his guises . . . Brando always remains recognizable, a star-actor in spite of himself. ” Jerry Lewis to Bogdanovich on the first laugh Lewis ever got onstage: “I was five years old. My mom and dad had a tux made—I worked in the borscht circuit with them—and I came out and I sang, ‘Brother, Can You Spare a Dime?’ the big hit at the time . . . It was 1931, and I stopped the show—naturally—a five-year-old in a tuxedo is not going to stop the show? And I took a bow and my foot slipped and hit one of the floodlights and it exploded and the smoke and the sound scared me so I started to cry. The audience laughed—they were hysterical . . . So I knew I had to get the rest of my laughs the rest of my life, breaking, sitting, falling, spinning.” John Wayne to Bogdanovich, on the early years of Wayne’s career when he was working as a prop man: “Well, I’ve naturally studied John Ford professionally as well as loving the man. Ever since the first time I walked down his set as a goose-herder in 1927. They needed somebody from the prop department to keep the geese from getting under a fake hill they had for Mother Machree at Fox. I’d been hired because Tom Mix wanted a box seat for the USC football games, and so they promised jobs to Don Williams and myself and a couple of the players. They buried us over in the properties department, and Mr. Ford’s need for a goose-herder just seemed to fit my pistol.” These twenty-six portraits and conversations are unsurpassed in their evocation of a certain kind of great movie star that has vanished. Bogdanovich’s book is a celebration and a farewell.

Book Description
Why Didn't Evangelicals "See Him Coming"? is a hard-hitting, clear-eyed account of how American society, the political establishment, and the rule of law reacted to a sociopath president. After Donald Trump left office, Americans didn't "see him going" either. Trump came and went, yet millions of Americans were "clueless" about what happened because of his "gaslighting tornado." An evangelical Christian author explains why Bible-believing, church-going, Jesus-talking, America-loving evangelicals, along with other Americans, listened to, were enamored by, and elected an immoral sociopath. An unlikely combination of viewpoints--psychology, law, and biblical theology--provide a surprising, coherent picture of how Donald Trump deceived and inflicted devastation on democracy. His uncanny influence is chronicled by media reporting during his four years in office and afterwards in a "shadow presidency" at Mar-a-Lago. If Trump succeeded in anything, it was deceit. Psychologists rightly attribute this to his "gaslighting"; biblical theology probes deeper, to his corrupt human nature. An FBI search warrant at Mar-a-Lago revealed the inevitable truth: Donald Trump was a thief and traitor from the beginning; the law finally caught up with a long overdue, unaccountable serial criminal for crimes that America would not tolerate.
