Been There, Done That by Greg Jackson (Hardcover)

Been There, Done That is by Greg Jackson, professor and host of the podcast History That Doesn't Suck. He argues that today's divided politics are less unprecedented than they seem, since American history is full of upheaval, bitter disagreement and bad behavior. Looking at eight episodes, from the partisan print wars of the 1790s onward, he shows that the nation has repeatedly pushed back against its worst impulses and found a way to overcome them.
