Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In A Necessary Evil, Pulitzer Prize-winning author Garry Wills shows that distrust of government is embedded deep in the American psyche. From the revolt of the colonies against king and parliament to present-day tax revolts, militia movements, and debates about term limits, Wills shows that American antigovernment sentiment is based on a fundamental misunderstanding of our history. By debunking some of our fondest myths about the Founding Fathers, the Constitution, and the taming of the frontier, Wills shows us how our tendency to hold our elected government in disdain is misguided In a provocative look at the essential role of government in American society, Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Garry Wills examines the roots of both mainstream and extremist distrust of government. Taking readers from the rancorous debates of the Founding Fathers through the Civil War to contemporary contretemps over gun control, abortion, and terrorist acts, he uses historical fact to destroy deeply embedded fictions.
