**The New York Times bestseller** **Updated to include Obama's second term, Trump's first year and a half, climate change, nuclear winter, Korea, Russia, Iran, China, Libya, ISIS, and Syria** 'This is not history for history's sake , however - this is the history of our present and future , long beyond cold war , into war on terror , war on drugs ' Ed Vulliamy, Guardian The Untold History of the United States is filmmaker Oliver Stone and historian Peter Kuznick's riveting landmark account of the rise and decline of the American empire - the most powerful and dominant nation the world has ever seen. Probing the dark corners of the administrations of eighteen presidents, from Woodrow Wilson to Donald Trump, they dare to ask just how far the US has drifted from its founding democratic ideals. Beginning with the bloody suppression of the Filipino struggle for independence and spanning the two World Wars, it documents how US administrations have repeatedly intervened in conflicts on foreign soil, taking part in covert operations and wars in Latin American, Asia and the Middle East. At various times it has overthrown elected leaders in favour of right-wing dictators, for both economic and political gain. Examining America's atomic history, Stone and Kuznick argue that the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were militarily unnecessary and morally indefensible. They show how the United States has repeatedly brandished nuclear threats and come terrifyingly close to nuclear war. They expose how US presidents have trampled on the US constitution and international law and lay bare the recent transformation of United States into a national security state with the closest links to Russia since the end of the Second World War. Using the latest research and recently declassified records, The Untold History builds a meticulously documented and shocking picture of the American empire, showing how it has determined the course of world events for the interests of the few across the twentieth century and beyond.

My new travel bag!
Color: Chocolate, Size: Large
I love this bag. It will be my new travel bag, replacing my back pack. It has lots of pockets and looks fashionable. I love that it’s expandable. It will be helpful for those trips where I seems to bring back more than I originally packed. 🤭. The shoulder straps are long enough to give you adequate space to carry on your shoulder. I also live that it has a strap to put on that handle of your luggage. The size is perfect for fitting under the seat in front of you when flying. If it holds up during my next trip I will definitely return to purchase other colors. Great bag for the price!

10/10 favorite bag of all time.
Color: Chocolate, Size: Large
LOVE this bag so much!! I use it for work and it fits my change of clothes, lunch box, water bottle, headphones, book, and a little extra. It fits everything you need with so many organizing pockets and tons of room, zipper is great, accessibility is great etc etc. It's nylon-ish feeling in terms of material, and washable which I love. Would recommend this as a dupe to baggu as well. I also love the chocolate color, my favorite!

Great versatile bag!
Color: Black, Size: Large
This tote bag is remarkable in that it’s very nice looking and so lightweight with many great pockets. It is expandable as advertised. The strap that makes it easy to attach to luggage strollers is an example of its versatility. I’m thrilled with this item’s design and comfort afforded with the wide straps and ease of expansion.
