Drawing on his long career as a lawyer, deputy U.S. Trade Representative under Ronald Reagan, and U.S. Trade Representative under Donald Trump, Lighthizer argues that decades of one-sided free trade weakened American manufacturing, displaced workers, and left communities more vulnerable. The book is not a general economics survey; it is a direct account of how U.S. trade policy evolved, why he believes it failed, and why China became the central test case for a tougher approach. Its purpose is both explanatory and argumentative: it defends tariffs, leverage, and a worker-centered trade policy as tools for restoring industrial strength and negotiating from a position of power. The result is a highly political but practical book aimed at readers who want an insider view of how trade policy is made and why it matters to jobs, wages, and national strategy.
