In 2016\, a group of armed\, divinely insp ired right-wing protestors led by Ammon Bundy occupied the Malheur Nationa l Wildlife Refuge in the high desert of eastern Oregon. Encamped in the sh adowlands of the republic\, insisting that the Federal government had no r ight to own public land\, the occupiers were seen by a divided country as either dangerous extremists dressed up as cowboys\, or as heroes insisting on restoring the rule of the Constitution. From the Occupation&rsquo\;s b eginnings\, to the trials of the occupiers in federal court in downtown Po rtland and their tumultuous aftermaths\, Shadowlands is the reson ant\, multifaceted story of one of the most dramatic flashpoints in the ye ar that gave us Donald Trump. Gathering into its vortex the realities of s ocial media technology\, history\, religion\, race\, and the environment&m dash\;this piercing work by Anthony McCann offers us a combination of beau tiful writing and high-stakes analysis of our current cultural and politic al moment. Shadowlands is a clarifying\, exhilarating story of a nation facing an uncertain future and a murky past in a time of great coll ective reckoning.
