In this remarkable book, J.J. Sefton captures it all, in real time, day by day. Even as he regards the unfolding events with all the alarm and outrage so many of us felt, he also brings to the task great perspective and, yes, even wry gallows humor. Above all, he makes sense of it.
Like other vivid, first-person accounts of gruesome history-in-the-making - Madame de Stael's Considerations on the Principal Events of the French Revolution, John Reed's account of the 1917 Bolshevik seizure of power, William L. Shirer on the rise of the Nazis - J.J. Sefton's The End of America: 100 Days That Shook the World will be read by our grandchildren as a great cautionary tale about the fragility of our Republic, and the great evil of which human beings are capable. That is, if they - and we - are lucky.
