Lyndon Johnson and the American Dream

Lyndon Johnson and the American Dream

by Doris Kearns




Lyndon Johnson-brilliant, formidable, troubled-is captured here in one of the most revealing portraits of an American president ever written. It is the story of Johnson's life from the farmhouse on the Pedernales where he was born, to the White House where he lived under siege during the last period of his term, terrified by dreams of paralysis, wandering at night through the Mansion with a small flashlight. It is a brilliant analysis of the private man and his recurrent patterns of behavior, allowing us to understand some of the complexities of the public figure: his yearning to "do right"-but at any cost; his surprisingly ambiguous feelings about intellectuals; his obsession with Robert Kennedy; his crippling incapacity to present himself effectively in public; his extraordinary achievements in the Senate, in civil rights, and with the Great Society; and the meaning of his-and of our-failure in Vietnam.
