THERE IS NOTHING FOR YOU HERE - FIONA HILL KART...

"This book has a miraculous quality.... As a memoir this is hard to put down  if you are
seeking a better American future you should pick it up.??Timothy Snyder  New York Times
best-selling author of On Tyranny INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER | A celebrated foreign
policy expert and key impeachment witness reveals how declining opportunity has set America on
the grim path of modern Russia?and draws on her personal journey out of poverty  as well as her
unique perspectives as an historian and policy maker  to show how we can return hope to our
forgotten places. Fiona Hill grew up in a world of terminal decay. The last of the local mines
had closed  businesses were shuttering  and despair was etched in the faces around her. Her
father urged her to get out of their blighted corner of northern England: ?There is nothing for
you here  pet ? he said. The coal-miner's daughter managed to go further than he ever could
have dreamed. She studied in Moscow and at Harvard  became an American citizen  and served
three U.S. Presidents. But in the heartlands of both Russia and the United States  she saw
troubling reflections of her hometown and similar populist impulses. By the time she offered
her brave testimony in the first impeachment inquiry of President Trump  Hill knew that the
desperation of forgotten people was driving American politics over the brink?and that we were
running out of time to save ourselves from Russia's fate. In this powerful  deeply personal
account  she shares what she has learned  and shows why expanding opportunity is the only
long-term hope for our democracy. ?Of every book written by anybody associated with the Trump
administration  in any way  [this] is absolutely the one to read.??Rachel Maddow A New York
