In the decades that followed, American leaders put that claim to
the test. They embraced globalisation as a putative source of
unprecedented wealth, embarked on wide-ranging military campaigns
to export American values, and redefined the very meaning of
freedom. Meanwhile, they placed all their bets on the White House
fulfilling the promise of their Cold War triumph: unequaled
prosperity, lasting peace, and absolute freedom. In The Age of
Illusions, bestselling author Andrew Bacevich takes us from that
moment of seemingly ultimate victory to the age of Trump,
recounting an epic tale of folly and delusion. Writing with his
usual eloquence and vast knowledge, he explains how within a
quarter of a century the United States ended up with gaping
inequality, permanent war, moral confusion, and an increasingly
angry and alienated population, as well as, of course, the
strangest president in American history.
