Summary "Russell Cobb's 'The Great Oklahoma Swindle' is a rousing and incisive examination of the regional culture and social attitudes of 'flyover country' in the wake of the 2016 election, which has once again vaulted a romanticized 'American Working Class' into public debate, 24/7 mainstream media commentary, and political rants and fake news emanating from the 'Alt-Right.'"-- Provided by publisher
