520    "Before the house had Tip O'Neill, there was John 
       McCormack. How did this man, with an eighth grade 
       education and a false family history, become Speaker of 
       the House of Representatives, and later next in line to be
       President of the United States? In this exhaustive 
       political biography, Garrison Nelson lays out every detail
       of the life and work of an incredibly forceful and 
       important American politician. The book details the roles 
       McCormack played in the creation of Social Security and 
       the passage of Lend-Lease, Medicare and Medicaid as well 
       as the secret funding of the atomic bomb. The book ties 
       together relationships, showing how this suave and 
       secretive politician contributed to the selection of his 
       "poker pal" Harry Truman as vice president in 1944 and in 
       1960, as JFK's named "floor manager," helped orchestrate 
       Lyndon Johnson acceptance of JFK's vice presidential 
       invitation. This groundbreaking research examines the 
       machinations of congress, and also takes a close look at a
       critical time in US history, as American erupted with 
       conflicts over civil rights and the Vietnam War. The 
       lessons learned in McCormack's life in office still 
       resonate with today's political leadership, and have an 
       impact on the legacy of the JFK Presidency, the role of 
       congress, the shape of the Democratic party, and a 
       powerful generation of politicians"--|cProvided by 
       publisher.

       McCormack for those interested in JFK era history"--
