Drive through rural America and you’ll see small town after small town empty and decaying.  As you drive past the abandoned manufacturing plants and shuttered Victorian homes once inhabited by its workers and executives, you can picture what the town was like forty years ago. A thriving community where the company president and assembly line worker went to the same church and whose children went to the same school.

But what if we could reclaim this America?

In Spencer Morrison’s provocative new book, Reshore: How Tariffs Will Bring Our Jobs Home and Revive the American Dream, Morrison argues that the strong manufacturing base that was long the cornerstone of a strong middle class, healthy economy and thriving country can be revived. Its disappearance was a choice – one made by elites who only cared about their bottom dollar - to export our jobs and our wealth abroad.

The all-too-predictable result is that Americans are poorer than they have ever been. And the cultural consequences could hardly be more profound. At an alarming rate, Americans are swapping healthy foods for highly processed foods, replacing high quality appliances and household items with imported cheap, low-quality goods and are becoming renters instead of homeowners. Because we are poorer, fewer of us are getting married and having children. In the hopelessness that abounds in rural America, more are turning to drugs.

How can this horrific reality be reversed, argues Morrison? Tariffs!

Reshore dispels the common misconceptions that free traders, libertarians and too many “conservatives” use to scare the American people about tariffs. It is vital reading for Americans ready to once again put America first and rebuild the America our founders left us. 

"Reshore is one of the most important books of the year, the current time's version of Thomas Paine’s Common Sense. It is a must read to understand how the financialization of our economy has destroyed the middle class and how tariffs are a tool that can be used to reverse this decline. But it is more than a book on tariffs. Morrison takes the reader through a tour de force of economic history and economic philosophy. Reshore should be to economic nationalism what Ludwig von Mises' Human Action: A Treatise on Economics is to Austrian economics.” – Stephen K Bannon

“Spencer Morrison makes a clear and highly persuasive case for the necessity of tariffs. Making America Great Again depends on bringing American jobs back where they belong – to America.” – Peter Navarro
