“Long-overdue...lluminating”—James Worthen, author of The Young Nixon and His Rivals: Four California Republicans Eye the White House, 1946–1958; “the definitive biography of Harold Stassen...essential...invaluable”—David Pietrusza, political historian and author; “splendid”—James J. Kiepper, author of Styles Bridges Yankee Senator; “Stassen’s rightful place in American history is now assured.”—Phil Willkie, grandson of Wendell L. Willkie, the Republican nominee for President in 1940.
In 1938 Harold E. Stassen was elected governor of Minnesota at age 31. He went on to a distinguished career as a key political figure of the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s. In 1943 he resigned as governor to enter the United States Navy at the height of World War II. In the postwar years he participated in writing the charter of the United Nations, and later served as a key diplomat in the Eisenhower administration, very nearly achieving a nuclear test ban treaty with the Soviet Union. He is perhaps most famously known as being a perennial candidate for the Republican Party nomination for President of the United States, seeking it 10 times between 1944 and 1992 (1944, 1948, 1952, 1964, 1968, 1976, 1980, 1984, 1988 and 1992), but never winning it. This book covers all these activities.

All eyes were on the Supreme Court this morning. In 1992 Pat Buchanan declared that there was a culture war going on in America. The argument over Proposition 8 proves that he was correct. The death this week of Anthony Lewis, a leading proponent of "equal protection" clearly defines the choice before the Court and the country.
