The authors of Shattered, which recounted Hillary Clinton's loss in the 2016 Presidential race, return with a post mortem on the Biden campaign, concluding that favorable twists of fate helped the 46th President eke out a much narrower victory than many realize.
What The Reviewers Say
It’s understandable that Allen and Parnes would do everything they could to amp up the drama—not an easy feat.
... a brisk and detailed account of the 2020 presidential race.
As Parnes and Allen make clear, despite a relentless post-election narrative emphasizing the supposed strength of Biden’s victory, usually resting on the meaningless statistic that he had won 'more votes than any other presidential candidate in US history,' the campaign was well aware of how fragile this really was.
Allen and Parnes thoroughly document the interviews, broadcast and print articles, and anecdotal evidence they use to tell the story of Biden’s election.
