Speakers:
Gertrude Himmelfarb,

Acclaimed historian and author

Herbert London,

Hudson Institute President Emeritus and author

John Fonte,

Hudson Senior Fellow and Director, Center for American Common Culture

In The Transformational Decade: Snapshots of a Decade from 9/11 to the Obama Presidency (Rowman & Littlefield), Hudson President Emeritus shows the transformation that took place from the attack on the World Trade Center to the start of the Obama presidency. London offers an insightful view of a tumultuous decade that has fundamentally altered our society and the world.

The latest in a series of "decade" books from London—including The Overheated Decade, The Counterfeit Decade, and The Decade of Denial —this new work illuminates a time that he considers to be a new and more frightful period than any in recent American history.
