First Ladies and the Press
Looking at the personal interaction between each first lady from Martha Washington to Laura Bush and the mass media of her day, Maurine H. Beasley traces the growth of the institution of the first lady as a part of the American political system.
The Legal Connection
When Richard Milhous Nixon was sworn in as the thirtyseventh president of the United States on January 20, 1969, author Frank Becker couldn’t have anticipated or fully appreciated the impact that election would have on his teenage years. Becker was thirteen years old at the time, and when Nixon resigned as president August 9, 1974, Becker was eighteen. His father was a law partner to Richard Nixon and John Mitchell in the firm of Nixon, Mudge, Rose, Guthrie, Alexander, and Mitchell. In The Legal Connection, Becker draws on his personal recollections and his mother’s extensive memoirs to provide a unique inside look at the people of the Nixon White House and the Washington, DC, social sce...
Pat Nixon
Pat Nixon may be the least understood of modern first ladies. Although public opinion polls rated her one of our nation's most admired women, few Americans really knew much about her. This first scholarly biography of Thelma Ryan Nixon—the first biography in thirty-five years and the first to access her papers-goes further than any other book to show readers the real Pat Nixon. Lester David's The Lonely Lady of San Clemente painted her as a tragic figure while Julie Nixon Eisenhower's adoring Pat Nixon: The Untold Story fell short of offering an objective portrait. Now Mary Brennan moves beyond the oversimplified appraisals of this neglected first lady to provide a powerful study of a comp...
THE END OF RACISM IN AMERICA
The book, “The End of Racism In America,” traces the monster called racism, from the day “Junior” was born, in 1939, and documents thereafter, the horrendous effort put forth, for the greater part of “Junior’s” life, to assure him a place in the basement of the greatest nation on the face of the earth: America. When “Junior” moved from his native Alabama rural community called Nymph, where he was one of twelve children who lived in abject poverty, he located to the big city of Mobile, AL. He soon discovered he was doomed to second class citizenship, simply based on his back skin. In fact, laws guaranteed his inability to compete with whites in any segment of society. This b...
On Nixon's Madness
Was Richard Nixon actually a madman, or did he just play one? When Richard Nixon battled for the presidency in 1968, he did so with the knowledge that, should he win, he would face the looming question of how to extract the United States from its disastrous war in Vietnam. It was on a beach that summer that Nixon disclosed to his chief aide, H. R. Haldeman, one of his most notorious, risky gambits: the madman theory. In On Nixon's Madness, Zachary Jonathan Jacobson examines the enigmatic president through this theory of Nixon's own invention. With strategic force and nuclear bluffing, Nixon attempted to coerce his foreign adversaries through sheer unpredictability. As his national security a...
