STUNNING ACHIEVEMENT, REMARKABLY TOLD

Revisado: 07-23-15

Whether you hold editorial viewpoints of a similar nature (either historically or currently) to the author, one things is undeniable: this insider, coming-of-age story told within the context of permanent political change that Nixon's 1968 presidential race had on American Politics is nothing short of breathtaking.

Recommended for any and all political junkie hungry for new information and broader, detailed perspective on well known topics.

IMPORTANT NOTE: by and large, the editorial positions of Mr. Buchanan so rarely influence his telling of the story inside this book. Buchanan instead uses the work as a forum to share with the public thousands of pieces of correspondence and various personal notes that he, as a young and largely inexperienced political operative at the time, learned on the campaign trail.

Like any Buchanan book there is SOME soapboxing -- yet not only far less than in most of Patrick's other works, but far less in fact than most ideologically driven authors would use when approaching such a tale to begin with.

It is clear that Buchanan takes his loyalty to the former President, as well as providing accurate information in a book of political history, as obligations which far outweigh most interest in using the 68' election as a backdrop to spout out like a fountain on the strong conceptual points of view Patrick has has become well known for ever since his first campaign for President back in 1992.
