Fantasyland, by Kurt Andersen

 

This is a fascinating and provocative look at Americans' penchant for believing the fantastical over the realistic, starting with the earliest colonists all the way up to the current obsession with wacky conspiracy theories and the blatant lies that come out of the Trump administration. It is required reading for anyone who wants to understand how we got to where we are today.
