American Rule: How a Nation Conquered the World But Failed Its People by Jared Yates Sexton

4.0

An easily digestible and succinct history of American myths, dating back from the constitution to the current day. It details why those myths were constructed, how they were deployed, the link between evangelicalism and American exceptionalism, and how it's all lead to where we are now. Equally critical of the left as it is the right. I learned a lot reading this book.
