Product Description

Chronicling the Reagan decade, when America fell from dominant world position to struggling debtor nation, Haynes Johnson attempts to capture the drama and tragedy of an era nurtured by greed and a morality that found virtue in not getting caught throughan examination of living case histories and an emphasis on human terms. "It is morning again in America", Reagan's campaign commercials read, and for too long America embraced what Johnson claims was a convenient lie. Indeed the problems that plagued the US in that decade are still present even today, as he demonstrates in his afterword, "Notes on an Era", written especially for this reissue.
