This is the inside story of the US-China trade war, how relations
between these superpowers unraveled, darkening prospects for global
peace and prosperity, as told by two Wall Street Journal reporters,
one based in Washington, D.C., the other in Beijing, who have had
more access to the decision makers in the White House and in
China's Zhongnanhai leadership compound than anyone else. The trade
battle between China and the U.S. didn't start with Trump and won't
end with him, argue Bob Davis and Lingling Wei. The two countries
have a long and fraught political and economic history which has
become more contentious over the past three years-an escalation
that has negatively impacted both countries' economies and the
world at large-and holds the potential for even more uncertainty
and disruption. How did this stand-off happen? How much are U.S.
presidents and officials who haven't effectively confronted or
negotiated with China to blame? What role have Chinese leaders, and
U.S. business leaders who for decades acted as Beijing's lobbyists
in Washington, played in driving tensions between the two
countries? Superpower Showdown is the story of a romance gone bad.
Uniquely positioned to tell the story, Davis and Wei have conducted
hundreds of interviews with government and business officials in
both nations over the seven years they have worked together writing
for the Wall Street Journal. Analyzing U.S.-China relations, they
explain how we have reached this tipping point, and look at where
we could be headed. Vivid and provocative, Superpower Showdown will
help readers understand the context of the trade war and prepare
them for what may come next.

Henry Grady, who turned the Atlanta Constitution into a nationally
prominent publication in a few short years, is credited with giving
Anniston's newspaper its maiden name, The Hot Blast. The
inspiration, we're told, came when Grady, in Anniston for a visit
to this model city, noted the sparks shooting out from the company
town's foundry. "Hot Blast" seemed like a nifty handle for a paper
covering northeast Alabama. On Aug. 18, 2008, The Anniston Star,
the descendant of The Hot Blast, celebrated its 125th birthday. The
paper was not alone in hitting the big 1-2-5. In early July, the
city of Anniston marked 125 years of existence. The Star has
created something we believe worthy of the anniversary. The book is
a compilation of five special newspaper sections examining The
Model City's history and its future. It looks backwards, to Samuel
Noble and Daniel Tyler's grand experiment at creating a different
sort of company town, one that treated workers fairly, established
a foundation for a high-functioning community and aspired to lift
the South from its post-war doldrums. This book aims to extract
lessons from our past that can be applied to our future. The
authors do this because we believes a community can't know where
it's going until it's sure of where it's been. We hope you will
find The Model City informative and challenging, as bracing as the
whoosh of warm air blowing out of an iron furnace.
