Report

John Ganz shows how the 1992 US election was a dress rehearsal for the triumph of Trump . . . Ganz, a journalist by trade, is a fine historian; he brings clarity to events we remember but perhaps did not fully understand. Rollicking stories are offered instead of bludgeoning polemic Gerard De Groot The Times
