Deer Hunting with Jesus: Dispatches from America's Class War
by Joe Bageant
A raucous, truth-telling look at the white working poor-and why they hate liberalism. Deer Hunting with Jesusis web columnist Joe Bageants report on what he learned when he moved back to his hometown of Winchester, Virginia, which-like countless American small towns-is fast becoming the bedrock of a permanent underclass. By turns brutal, tender, incendiary, and seriously funny, this book is a call to arms for fellow progressives with little real understanding of "the great beery, NASCAR-loving, church-going, gun-owning America that has never set foot in a Starbucks.
