When politicians and pundits were trying to understand the motivations of voters in “heartland” America in 2008 they read Joe Bageant's watershed book "Deer Hunting with Jesus.” Joe grew up in Winchester, Virginia, then moved away and became a journalist.

Joe Bageant, Author, Lecturer, and Marxist.
