Description: "Bill Rauch has led a political double life: after a decade as press secretary, advance man and confidant to New York mayor Ed Koch, he moved south to live a simpler life in Beaufort, South Carolina - and wound up as Beaufort's mayor. In Politicking, Rauch explains how local politics works - and how to bring about change in one's own community - through stories and insights that are as convincing as they are colorful."--BOOK JACKET.
