the invisible bridge by rick perlstein. covers 1973-76 in america, focus on the conservative movement. pretty good but some times all the cultural points he brings up feel unnecessary. i dont really need a description of every doonesbury cartoon or snl skit that references the thing were talking about and for some of the movies all he does is describe the plot, which is unnecessary if youve seen the movie and irrelevent if you havent. overall pretty good, good way to kill lots of time at my current do nothing assignment at work, but not as good as nixonland. 8/10 worth reading if you got the time but not quite as vital as nixonland felt.
