The country he loves and defended for twenty-eight years seems to be unraveling in front of his eyes. Raised to believe in a vision of America that values fairness, honesty, and respect for others, Cummings is increasingly engulfed by the fear and anger sweeping through his beloved country as he tries to hold onto hope about America's future. David Finkel, known for his unique, in-depth reporting, spent fifteen years immersed in Brent Cummings's world to create this intimate, acutely observed, and beautifully written portrait of a man's life, community, thoughts and feelings as America becomes ever more divided. Cummings was one of the unforgettable figures in Finkel's The Good Soldiers, a book about which The New York Times stated, "Finkel has made art out of a defining moment in history. You will be able to take this book down from the shelf years from now and say, 'This is what happened. This is what it felt like."--cProvided by publisher.14aCummings, Brent, d1968- 14aTrump, Donald, d1946- xInfluencia 10aUnited States.bArmyvBiography.14aEstados Unidos. bArmada  0aVeteranszGeorgiavBiography. 4aVeteranos vBiografía zGeorgia  0aPolitical culturezUnited StatesxHistoryx21st century. 4aCultura política zEstados Unidos xHistoria ySiglo XXI  0aIdentity politicszUnited StatesxHistoryx21st century. 0aAmericansxAttitudesxHistoryx21st century. 0aNational characteristics, American. 4aCaracterísticas nacionales estadounidenses  0aPresidentszUnited StatesxElectiony2016xPublic opinion. 4aPresidentesxEleccioneszEstados Unidos 0aPresidentszUnited StatesxElectiony2020xPublic opinion.08iOnline version:aFinkel, David, 1955-tAmerican dreamer.bFirst editiondNew York : Random House, [2024]z9780593597088w(DLC) 2023052110
