Summary

A sweeping political, economic, and social history of the United States from 2000 to 2025.

America’s 21st century began with a bug—and nearly ended with another.

Having survived the Y2k scare, the United States, having ended the Soviet Empire, expected to settle down into a period of quiet, if uninspiring, growth.

Critics Review

“In America in the 21st Century, Larry continues where he left off with Patriot’s History, detailing the War on Terror, the rise of the Democrat Party under Barack Obama and its subsequent fall. He chronicles with a critical, but unbiased eye, the era of ‘wokeness’ and its accompanying pathologies, the transformational realignment of the major political parties in the Trump era, and the Covid debacle. This book is thorough, informative, and enlightening, and most of all optimistic, reflecting Larry’s refreshingly positive spirit, as contrasted with so many other historians, political commentators, and so-called influencers. In these pages you’ll find both the truth and abundant evidence to believe that America is on a path to surpass its historically unparalleled greatness. This work is highly readable and is essential for your library, your friends, and your kids.”“In America in the 21st Century, Larry continues where he left off with Patriot’s History, detailing the War on Terror, the rise of the Democrat Party under Barack Obama and its subsequent fall.
