"This book has a miraculous quality.... As a memoir this is
hard to put down; if you are seeking a better American future you
should pick it up.”—Timothy Snyder, New York
Times best-selling author of On Tyranny
INSTANTÂ NEW YORK TIMESÂ BESTSELLERÂ |Â A
celebrated foreign policy expert and key impeachment witness
reveals how declining opportunity has set America on the grim path
of modern Russia—and draws on her personal journey out of
poverty, as well as her unique perspectives as an historian and
policy maker, to show how we can return hope to our forgotten
places. Fiona Hill grew up in a world of terminal decay. The last
of the local mines had closed, businesses were shuttering, and
despair was etched in the faces around her. Her father urged her to
get out of their blighted corner of northern England: “There is
nothing for you here, pet,” he said.   The
coal-miner’s daughter managed to go further than he ever could
have dreamed. She studied in Moscow and at Harvard, became an
American citizen, and served three U.S. Presidents. But in the
heartlands of both Russia and the United States, she saw troubling
reflections of her hometown and similar populist impulses. By the
time she offered her brave testimony in the first impeachment
inquiry of President Trump, Hill knew that the desperation of
forgotten people was driving American politics over the brink—and
that we were running out of time to save ourselves from Russia’s
fate. In this powerful, deeply personal account, she shares what
she has learned, and shows why expanding opportunity is the only
long-term hope for our democracy. “Of every book written by
anybody associated with the Trump administration, in any way,
[this] is absolutely the one to read.”—Rachel
