Publisher Description: " White] revolutionized the art of political reporting." --William F. Buckley The Making of the President 1972 is the fourth book in Theodore H. White's landmark series, a riveting account of the 1972 presidential campaign and Richard M. Nixon's precedent-shattering landslide victory. White had made history with his groundbreaking narrative The Making of the President 1960, winning the Pulitzer Prize for revolutionizing the way that presidential campaigns were reported. Now, The Making of the President 1972--back in print, freshly repackaged, and with a new foreword by Cokie Roberts--joins Theodore Sorensen's Kennedy, White's The Making of the President 1960, 1964, and 1968, and other classics in the burgeoning Harper Perennial Political Classics series. |
