A review by nietzschesghost
The Great Alignment: Race, Party Transformation, and the Rise of Donald Trump by Alan I. Abramowitz

4.0

After finishing this book this morning, I had a long think about how I felt about Alan I. Abramowitz's interpretation of America and recent events that have happened there, and although some of the commentary is still very much relevant today, some is not. This makes me believe that this book was written a while ago and is not as up-to-date as it may seem. That said, this is a world that is changing rapidly, it would be an impossiblity to keep on top of everything - especially with Trump who changes his mind, and ideas on a daily basis but I would expect some recent events to take precedence over those that occurred longer ago.

This is a great read for people wanting to learn how America got to the point it is now at but if you wish to read about more recent events this is probably not the book for you.

I would like to thank Alan I. Abramowitz, Yale University Press, and NetGalley for the opportunity to read an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
