Doris Kearns Goodwin
À propos de cet audio
Doris Kearns Goodwin's classic life of Lyndon Johnson, who presided over the Great Society, the Vietnam War, and other defining moments in the tumultuous 1960s, is a monument in political biography. From the moment the author, then a young woman from Harvard, first encountered President Johnson at a White House dance in the spring of 1967, she became fascinated by the man - his character, his enormous energy and drive, and his manner of wielding these gifts in an endless pursuit of power. As a member of his White House staff, she soon became his personal confidante, and in the years before his death he revealed himself to her as he did to no other.
Widely praised and enormously popular, Lyndon Johnson and the American Dream is a work of biography like few others. With uncanny insight and a richly engrossing style, the author renders LBJ in all his vibrant, conflicted humanity.

The narrative analysis is necessary & superb
Doris Kearns Goodwin is more than just a great biographer but takes us into the deeper recesses of human psyche and heart. A masterful comprehensive personal exploration of a most complex and oft misunderstood president.

A fascinating portrait of a complicated man
Johnson tried to out do Roosevelt in transforming the US into the "Great Society" but got sucked into the vortex of the I'll advised war in Vietnam. This book provides an engaging psychological portrait of a man who reached for greatness but died bitter and disappointed.
