Publisher's Synopsis
Americans are afraid, confused, and yearning for the truth. Letters from the Hinterland: 2018: a Coming Reckoning is a collection of quotes, poems, and extensive essays that chronicle both the triumph of then candidate Donald Trump in 2016 and the tenacity of President Trump in 2017-2018. The author, a Hungarian-German refugee-immigrant who with his family escaped Eastern Europe's iron curtain and landed on the shores of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness in 1957, provides a fresh historical perspective on the unexpected candidacy and almost miraculous victory of Donald Trump. Along with the President, the author shares a deep commitment to and admiration for the Great American Middle Class, whose members not only freed nations from fascist and communist tyrannies, but also built the engines of liberty and prosperity.
