Told with urgency and sharp political insight, Nixonland recaptures America's turbulent 1960s and early 1970s and reveals how Richard Nixon rose from the political grave to seize and hold the presidency. Perlstein's epic account begins in the blood and fire of the 1965 Watts riots, nine months after Lyndon Johnson's historic landslide victory over Barry Goldwater appeared to herald a permanent liberal consensus in the United States. Yet the next year, scores of liberals were tossed out of Congress, America was more divided than ever, and a disgraced politician was on his way to a shocking comeback: Richard Nixon. Between 1965 and 1972, America experienced no less than a second civil war. Out of its ashes, the political world we know now was born. It was the era not only of Nixon, Johnson, Spiro Agnew, Hubert H. Humphrey, George McGovern, Richard J. Daley, and George Wallace but Abbie Hoffman, Ronald Reagan, Angela Davis, Ted Kennedy, Charles Manson, John Lindsay, and Jane Fonda. There are tantalizing glimpses of Jimmy Carter, George H. W. Bush, Jesse Jackson, John Kerry, and even of two ambitious young men named Karl Rove and William Clinton -- and a not so ambitious young man named George W. Bush. Cataclysms tell the story of Nixonland : Angry blacks burning down their neighborhoods in cities across the land as white suburbanites defend home and hearth with shotguns The student insurgency over the Vietnam War, the assassinations of Robert F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King, and the riots at the 1968 Democratic National Convention The fissuring of the Democratic Party into warring factions manipulated by the "dirty tricks" of Nixon and his Committee to Re-Elect the President Richard Nixon pledging a new dawn of national unity, governing more divisively than any president before him, then directing a criminal conspiracy, the Watergate cover-up, from the Oval Office Then, in November 1972, Nixon, harvesting the bitterness and resentment born of America's turmoil, was reelected in a landslide even bigger than Johnson's 1964 victory, not only setting the stage for his dramatic 1974 resignation but defining the terms of the ideological divide that characterizes America today. Filled with prodigious research and driven by a powerful narrative, Rick Perlstein's magisterial account of how America divided confirms his place as one of our country's most celebrated historians.
Obama urged his cabinet to read this book. 反對作者本人政治傾嚮對本書造成“偏見”,建議書評人在發錶這樣的empty claims的時候引用點什麼扶持自己的論據,不然隻能被解讀成對與自己政見不同的sour/bitterness。
評分如果對這段曆史感興趣,那麼此書是很好的,對美國政治發展寫的非常詳細。但在我看來,有點過於詳細瞭,很多細枝末節也寫瞭進來。與此同時,此書基本是媒體匯總史,缺乏任何新穎的分析或其他調查方式。作者雖然下瞭很多功夫,但其文筆仍然有許多不順暢之處。另外,作者本人的政治偏見讓這本書的影響力有所下降。總而言之,有幫助但並非一流作品。

这本书挺不错的,作者很有意思。就是太长了。悲剧啊,我居然要写这本书的bookreview。 那个年代的美国确实和今天很不一样。很难想象。作者不是亲历者,能够写到这样已经很不容易了。这本书是很好的介绍那个年代的材料,推荐有时间的朋友去看看
