The country he loves and defended for twenty-eight years seems to be unraveling in front of his eyes. Raised to believe in a vision of America that values fairness, honesty, and respect for others, Cummings is increasingly engulfed by the fear and anger sweeping through his beloved country as he tries to hold onto hope about America's future. David Finkel, known for his unique, in-depth reporting, spent fifteen years immersed in Brent Cummings's world to create this intimate, acutely observed, and beautifully written portrait of a man's life, community, thoughts and feelings as America becomes ever more divided. Cummings was one of the unforgettable figures in Finkel's The Good Soldiers, a book about which The New York Times stated, "Finkel has made art out of a defining moment in history. You will be able to take this book down from the shelf years from now and say, 'This is what happened. This is what it felt like."-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Cummings, Brent. 650 0 $a Veterans $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Political culture $z United States. 650 0 $a Polarization (Social sciences) $z United States. 650 0 $a Right and left (Political science) $z United States. 650 0 $a Identity politics $z United States. 650 6 $a Anciens combattants $z EÌtats-Unis $v Biographies. 650 6 $a Polarisation collective $z EÌtats-Unis. 650 6 $a Politique identitaire $z EÌtats-Unis. 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 rvmgf 776 08 $i Online version: $a Finkel, David, 1955- $t American dreamer. $b First edition $d New York : Random House, [2024] $z 9780593597088 $w (DLC) 2023052110 941 $a 14 952 $l XHPD657 $d 20240611031845.0 952 $l UJPE911 $d 20240606010713.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20240604014942.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20240524010817.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20240502011111.0 952 $l ORAX826 $d 20240502010233.0 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409045355.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20240409012906.0 952 $l BVPE851 $d 20240409011220.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20240402010508.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20240305011514.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20240302011507.0 952 $l CYPF706 $d 20240302010117.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20240224010930.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E7FF8AECC26111EE8AAD6E6423ECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b LJWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
