Nixonland: The Rise of a President and the Fracturing of America by Rick Perlstein

Did not finish book. Stopped at 40%.

This doesn't feel like a book that one can casually read. It really demands more attention than I'm able to give it at this point, since it covers the political history that leads to Nixon's presidency.

However, in the parts I did read, I found the haunting suggestion in the title to be very much true, and the author does an excellent job carefully exploring not just the people and events, but the cultural moments that defined this lead up to Nixon's presidency.
