Book Synopsis American Dynasty by : Kevin Phillips

Download or read book American Dynasty written by Kevin Phillips and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2004-09-30 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An acerbic, withering account of the ascent of the Bush family to the pinnacle of the American political and social elite and the implications of the dynasty's hold on power for democracy in America. With an unerring instinct for fakery and humbug,Phillips traces the convoluted trail of Bush mendacity through three generations. The picture he paints of a family willing to do ANYTHING to hold power and a country so craven as to vote for it is both very funny and completely dismaying in equal measure.
