He helped engineer one of the greatest upsets in political history-the election of Donald J. Trump as president of the United States.
And he's far from done.
Now he wants to restore America-its prosperity, its sense of self, and its ability to survive a perilous twenty-first century. To do that, former Trump White House strategist Steve Bannon intends to transform the Republican Party from a club for establishment flunkies into a populist political force powerful enough to take on America's military, economic, and cultural adversaries.
In Bannon: Always the Rebel, veteran White House reporter Keith Koffler-who had hours of exclusive access to Bannon, both during and immediately after his tenure at the White House-offers a penetrating portrait of the man and his ideas.
In Bannon, you'll learn:
How Bannon's core values come from his Catholic faith, his working-class background, and his service in the Navy
How Bannon's faith helped him stop drinking
Why Bannon-even as a Harvard Business School grad-was always an outsider
How he made his money in Hollywood-and then became both a maverick writer, producer, and director of conservative documentaries and the leader of a political movement at Breitbart.com
How Bannon plans to remake the GOP as a workers' party that will attract minority voters and become the dominant political force of the twenty-first century
Why Bannon believes America is a civilization in crisis
Provocative, original, concise, Bannon: Always the Rebel might just change the way you think-not only about Steve Bannon, but about politics and America's future.
