What to expect
The explosive story of the biggest mistakes in US history – from White House insider turned host of hit podcast The Rest Is Politics: US , Anthony Scaramucci
We’re living in an age of deep political anger and frustration. Where did it come from, and how do we get out?
From Main Street to Wall Street, from the boardroom to the Situation Room, Anthony Scaramucci uncovers the true origins of America’s current crisis. He pinpoints the catastrophic decisions that dismantled the system supporting the American Dream –deepening inequality, corroding trust and ultimately empowering Trump’s ascent and assault on democracy.
Rising from the working class to the heights of finance and power, Scaramucci knows first-hand how money and ideals are intertwined. Now widely admired for his storytelling and blistering political analysis, he brings fresh perspective to how both parties betrayed those they once represented, cutting through partisanship and offering a roadmap for rebuilding opportunity, security and hope.
All the Wrong Moves is not about right and left. It’s about right and wrong.
This audio edition features a bonus, audio exclusive interview between Anthony Scaramucci and Dominic Sandbrook, co-host of The Rest is History.

Challenging, surprising and always engaging. This is the Mooch at his most thoughtful and wise
Emily Maitlis

Anthony Scaramucci brings to his superb book the same verve, wit and intelligent analysis that we hear each week on The Rest is Politics US. This is essential reading for anyone trying to make sense of the mess the world is in

Insightful, funny, fascinating and unsparing – Anthony's book is deliciously like Anthony. When is he EVER not totally compelling?
Marina Hyde
-
Thoughtful, witty and always provocative, this is a wonderfully insightful reflection on the Trump phenomenon. Scaramucci takes the long view, looking back into American history for the roots of Trumpism, and identifies three crucial moments that shaped the political landscape of the 2020s. From the embrace of globalization and the rise of China to the invasion of Iraq and the Wall Street bailouts, this is an essential guide to what’s gone wrong with America. It’s an irresistibly engaging, lively and clever read – just as you’d expect from such a gifted communicator

Anthony Scaramucci has the rare talent of offering important political and market insights while also being blisteringly funny. All the Wrong Moves is thought-provoking and fun
Robert Peston
-
All the Wrong Moves is a profound, compelling and deeply thought-provoking book. Drawing on the past centuries of America’s rich history, this is a story filled with razor-sharp analysis, wisdom and pragmatic common sense. Authoritative, incisive, often disturbing, but ultimately offering a path for redemption – it needs to be read by as wide an audience as possible
James Holland, author of Normandy '44

The Mooch is just so annoying: as a storyteller, he makes the rest of us feel drab

The maddeningly brilliant Mooch is impossible to ignore
Jane Garvey

I like the Mooch through his various podcast and social media outlets, but found this book hardwork. It's written for an American audience and on numerous occasions refers to what "we were taught in school". There's a lot of references to the constitution which he assumes the listener will understand. I stopped listening halfway through the third chapter. I'm surprised that with his international fame/audience, he didn't approach it with a more international audience in mind, but then that would probably have alienated his target audience, America. But isn't that part of the America's big problem, recognising there is a big wide world beyond it's boundaries.
