Theodore H. White

4.9/5 (26275 ratings)

Description:In The Making of the President 1972, 4th volume of a history of American politics in action, Theodore H. White brings his defining quartet of campaign narratives to a surprising close. A consummate journalist, he chronicles both the Democratic & Republican parties as they jockeyed for position toward the end of Richard M. Nixon's turbulent 1st term. He illuminates the cinematic moments that shaped the campaign--the attempt on George Wallace's life, Edmund Muskie crying in the New Hampshire snow, the swift rise & fall of Tom Eagleton, & the ongoing anguish of Vietnam--leading inexorably to a 2nd chaotic collapse among Democrats & a landslide victory for Nixon. Yet even as the president's highest ambitions were confirmed, White watches aghast as the "new Nixon" of 1968 is eclipsed by the corrupt Nixon of old--a Shakespearean conclusion to an astonishing political epoch.Author's NoteThe end of the Postwar worldThe solitary man The road to Cedar point: From the liberal idea to the liberal theologyThe view from Key Biscayne: Blue collars & bread & butterThe Democratic primaries: A party in search of identity McGovern's army The web of numvers: A message from the census to politics-Confrontation at Miami The Eagleton affair Richard Nixon's campaign: "Out there"Power struggle: President versus pressThe Watergate affair The shaping of the mandate: Men & machineryAppeal to the people: Verdict in November Temptation of powerWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
