Freedom Embattled: Ideology and Political Action in the Age of Obama

This book seeks to unravel and understand the complex web of ideology and political action in the Obama years, both during his campaign and in the White House. A special look at Chicago helps shed light on the nature of the politicians, now in power, who have been formed in its political culture. Freedom Embattled simply reminds readers that the choice is rarely between liberty or bread. This book has a clear bias: we believe that given a choice between those two, the only possible choice is liberty.
