Description
In the past twenty years, not a single president has served two full terms. What has happened to the U.S. presidency? NONE OF THE ABOVE fully and frankly confronts our leadership crisis; shows how and why it occurred in terms of people, politics, and underlying problems involved; and offers provocative prescriptions for change.
In recounting the campaigns and tenures of Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Ford, and Carter, and the first Reagan years, veteran political correspondent Robert Shogan depicts the individual qualities and glowing promises that won each man his election. He then pinpoints with chilling accuracy the failure of each in turn to make good his pledges and achieve his goals.
