Philip Hoff: How Red Turned Blue in the Green Mountain State
“It would be hard to come up with a better-suited trio of authors for this well-chosen topic . . . . Philip Hoff is at its best . . . when it takes a thematic look at Hoff’s tenure, particularly when it examines tow issues in which the governor contrasted with, rather than reflected, the political Zeitgeist — war and race.”—Valley News“This is a very thorough account of Hoff’s political career, the political dynamics of a rapidly changing Vermont in the 1960s, and the implications of Hoff’s governorship for Vermont politics and policy after he left office. . . . Terry, Hand, and Marro are to be commended for offering us this fact-filled and analytically rich account of how Vermont politics and policy changed during six eventful years during which Philip H. Hoff served as governor.”—Vermont History
