The book is timely because we are currently enduring the most divisive presidential election campaign of the last 100 years.

These include Senator Robert Byrd, who served as Senate Majority Leader, Vice President Hubert Humphrey, And Senator Herman Talmadge, who brought him to Washington, DC. He relates his experiences working in three presidential campaigns, one that was a winning campaign and two that were losing campaigns. during his career he has gotten to know personally ad well as politically leaders in both the senate and the House. About the Author Mike McLeod is a practicing Washington lawyer and lobbyist in the firm, McLeod, Washington, and Miller.
