Description:
In LBJ: A Life, Pulitzer prize-winning authors Irwin Unger and Debi Unger provide a vivid portrait of the life of Lyndon B. Johnson, from his humble origins to his rise to America's highest office. The book explores the political and personal influences that made Johnson such an unpredictable, charismatic, and difficult person, depicting his life as a constant tension between political expediency and a deeply felt moral obligation to build the American "Great Society". From the hard scrabble life of the Texas hill country to the colorful Lone Star elections that provided an entree into national politics, to power politics in Washington, this highly readable biography traces the life, influences, and motivations of the man who occupied the Oval Office during one of the nation's most tumultuous periods.
