Brief, but indispensible little guidebook through the minefield of today's politics. History may not repeat itself, but there are patterns.
There are excellent parallels to modern issues within these pages, but very little organizing principle. It begins as a warning on general terms and then quickly focuses on the American presidency. Overall the sentiment is good and the read is quick but there's not enough substance to my tastes.
