American reckoning : inside Trump's trial - and my own / by Alter, Jonathan,author.;
"As one of a handful of journalists allowed in the courtroom, for 23 days Jonathan Alter sat just feet away from the most dangerous threat to democracy in American history, watching the spectacle of the century: the felony trial of Donald Trump [The people of the state of New York v. Donald J. Trump]. Highly publicized but untelevised and thus largely hidden from public view, this landmark trial offered hope of real justice amid a grueling eight-year national ordeal and foreshadowed the drama of the 2024 presidential election."--

Kennedy declared his [presidential] candidacy; and with this opening scene, Chris Wallace offers readers a front-row seat to history.

Johnson as his running mate over the impassioned objections of his brother Bobby -- this is a nonfiction political thriller filled with intrigue, cinematic action, and fresh reporting. Like with many popular histories, readers will be familiar with the story, but few will know the behind-the-scenes details"--
