Reviews
"Peter Swirski has presented us with a soundly researched, passionate, and beautifully written work - a Jeremiad about other Jeremiads, and a powerful critique of American society and politics as reflected in American media and popular culture." Arthur As, "A provocative and energetic book that reaches out beyond academia in an attempt to define the nature of American political literature." Financial Times, "Ars Americana is fascinating and original - and the subject of political literature is endlessly interesting and important. Written with a certain verve which carries the reader along!" Howard Zinn, author of A People's History of the United States, "Ars Americana, Ars Politica is an illuminating and highly entertaining look at the intersection of art, popular culture and politics. I learned a great deal about subjects where I thought I was a know-it-all. I strongly recommend this book." Robert W. McChesney, professor of communication, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, A provocative and energetic book that reaches out beyond academia in an attempt to define the nature of American political literature." Finantial Times Peter Swirski has presented us with a soundly researched, passionate, and beautifully written work – a Jeremiad about other Jeremiads, and a powerful critique of American society and politics as reflected in American media and popular culture." Arthur Asa Berger, Professor Emeritus in American Studies, Broadcast and Electronic Communication Arts, San Francisco State University "If Fox News reviews Ars Americana, Ars Politica sparks will fly. A book devoted to American literature, it itemizes the flaws in the way America is governed and deplores them. Raising fascinating issues, Peter Swirski has a prose style that will create a stir and encourage readers to take literature and the arts that much more seriously." David Rampton, Department of English, University of Ottawa, "Peter Swirski has presented us with a soundly researched, passionate, and beautifully written work - a Jeremiad about other Jeremiads, and a powerful critique of American society and politics as reflected in American media and popular culture."

Arthur Asa Berger, Professor Emeritus in American Studies, Broadcast and Electronic Communication Arts, San Francisco State University, "Peter Swirski quite deliberately violates some of the most sacred taboos of our dominant literary criteria, which demand that we not pay serious attention to fiction that is partisan, political, and popular. Continually provocative, Ars Americana, Ars Politica plunges us into a kind of political art that anyone who wants to comprehend American popular culture cannot afford to ignore." H. Bruce Franklin, author of Vietnam and Other American Fantasies, "Ars Americana is fascinating and original - and the subject of political literature is endlessly interesting and important. Written with a certain verve which carries the reader along!"

Synopsis
As partisan attacks have become increasingly bitter in American politics, contemporary culture has found ways to channel this outrage into the outrageous, responding with comedy and satire from both sides of the political spectrum. Ars Americana, Ars Politica cross-examines American politics, culture, and history by examining Irving Wallace's The Man, Richard Condon's Death of a Politician, P.J. O'Rourke's Parliament of Whores, Warren Beatty's film Bulworth, and Michael Moore's Stupid White Men to show how these popular artists have used soap-box partisanship and box-office artertainment to affect history.

    Carefully packaged book- arrived wrapped in plastic bag and shipped in cardboard box. As a frequent book buyer I appreciate this as so many books are just crammed into a plastic shopping bag and sent on their way- sometimes always hanging out of the bag. I know that Midtown Book Seller books will arrive as described. Shipped promptly. I’d highly recommend them as a seller.

    Excellent experience with this eBay used book seller! The books arrived in perfect condition, as described, and their pristine condition exceeded my expectations. What impressed me most was the speed of shipping: the book arrived much earlier than expected. Furthermore, the packaging was careful and professional, ensuring the book arrived undamaged. Thanks a lot! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

    Book was in very good condition as described in the listing. It looked almost new, in fact, but the pages did have some yellowing around the edges, a sign of its age. The seller did an excellent job of wrapping and packing the book for shipment, which I greatly appreciate! He has earned his 100% feedback rating, I'd say. I'm extremely pleased with the seller and this transaction. Thank you!
