Further, read Nixonland: The Rise of a President and the Fracturing of America. It's a pretty damned long tome (near 800 pages) but every page is absorbing and captivating. The book is built around the idea that Nixon rose to power by exploiting the feelings of resentment by the "common man" (or, as Nixonland calls them, the orthogonians) against the changing society of America during the 60's and that this has led, ever since, to the ideological dividing of America straight down the middle. That, in and of itself, is not really a novel concept, bu the way in which the book expounds upon it offers more insight into the state of American society and politics, both past and present, than anything else I've read on similar topics.

Mein Kampf was a real winner. Loved that book.
