Authoritarianism. Anti-Immigrant. White men fearful of losing control. Books banned, free press shut down. Widespread domestic spying. Dissent criminalized and many jailed tortured and killed. In his new book, American Midnight: The Great War, A Violent Peace, and Democracy’s Forgotten Crisis, acclaimed author historian Adam Hochschild says it was the Trumpiest period of American history before Trump. Amazing stories, with both villains and some heroes.
