His latest book, “Bunk: The Rise of Hoaxes, Humbug, Plagiarists, Phonies, Post-Facts and Fake News” takes a deep look at the mistruths and misdirections that have shaped our national identity. The book covers everything from spiritualism to Rachel Dolezal, from forged manuscripts to fake news. And with each bit of bunk, Young examines how both the fools and the foolers speak to a fundamental truth about our nation.
