Title: Lyndon B. Johnson and American Liberalism
First published: 1994
Description: Lyndon B. Johnson and American Liberalism provides a brief yet comprehensive treatment of the major events of Johnson's career but with a central focus on his role as the emblematic figure in the rise and fall of postwar American liberalism. The author includes 15 documents - Johnson's own speeches as well as assessments of the president and his programs by contemporaries and later scholars - that give readers the opportunity to examine LBJ's career firsthand and to evaluate its impact.

The book also contains photographs and cartoons from the period, an LBJ chronology, a bibliography, and an index.
