A Must-read to Understand the Current United States: Divided Consensus + America's Bottom (2 Volumes in Total)

About This Novel

The set contains two volumes, namely "Divided Consensus: A New History of the United States (Volume 1 and 2)" and "The American Underclass". "Divided Consensus: A New American History (Part 1 and 2)": A direct look at the impact of Trump's election as president, all in this American history! This book comprehensively displays the development process and social divisions of the United States from Columbus to Trump. It is the work of Gil Lepore, an extremely important historian in the United States today! Unlike any previous American history work, it reshapes the themes of American history: consensus and division. Beginning in 1492, this book shows the founding, wars, development and role of the United States in major world events in chronological order. The author believes that American history is a large-scale human political practice based on the three concepts of political equality, natural rights, and people's sovereignty. This book records the causes, processes, and consequences of this practice over more than 400 years. "The Bottom of America": Going deep into the bottom of society, using lens and text, trying to show a real and fragmented picture of American society. A book that writes about the "despair and tenacity" of the bottom! Not only the United States, but also the despair and resilience of the bottom class all over the world! When people think of the United States, the first thing that often comes to mind is the glamorous skyscrapers of Manhattan and the trend-setting cutting-edge technologies of Silicon Valley. This is indeed a portrayal of America, but it is not the whole picture. A Wall Street trader, driven by guilt over the financial industry, sets out to explore America beyond the central business district. In the book "The American Bottom", he used his lens and words to present a fragmented and real picture of American society, and made useful thoughts on bridging the class gap.
