About the book

On Tyranny

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A “bracing” (Vox) guide for surviving and resisting America’s turn towards authoritarianism, from “a rising public intellectual unafraid to make bold connections between past and present” (The New York Times)

“Timothy Snyder reasons with unparalleled clarity, throwing the past and future into sharp relief. He has written the rare kind of book that can be read in one sitting but will keep you coming back to help regain your bearings.”—Masha Gessen

The Founding Fathers tried to protect us from the threat they knew, the tyranny that overcame ancient democracy. Today, our political order faces new threats, not unlike the totalitarianism of the twentieth century. We are no wiser than the Europeans who saw democracy yield to fascism, Nazism, or communism. Our one advantage is that we might learn from their experience.

On Tyranny is a call to arms and a guide to resistance, with invaluable ideas for how we can preserve our freedoms in the uncertain years to come.

Awesome customer service!

Ryan at Bookpal contacted me that my delivery had been delayed because some of the books had been damaged on arrival at Bookpal's facility. He had already ordered urgent replacements which arrived the next day. I was very soon to be traveling and needed the books at my destination. Ryan expedited shipment to my travel address--The books were waiting for me upon my arrival. A quick and important read: I'm giving these powerful books away and will soon order more.
