What They're Saying
Critics Review
A San Francisco Chronicle Bestseller
“A call for a new American revolution … Like early-twentieth-century muckraking journalists and, more recently, I.F. Stone, Hedges makes a boisterous, outspoken contribution to revolutionizing the national conversation.” –Kirkus
“Hedges delivers a lively, wholly accessible treatise that focuses on individuals–lawyers, activists and others–to demonstrate what goes into the resolve to fight for change.” –Now Toronto
“Polemical, poetic and encyclopedic … Equally eloquent and stunningly depressing … A thought-provoking, profound and inspiring book that deserves to be ready by anyone concerned about the future of our world.” –Winnipeg Free Press
“So rich and layered.” –The Real News Network
