Book Review: An Excellent Campaign Novel!
Summary: 5 Stars
An outstanding book about the campaign season in Louisiana. This book features the comeback of the colorful Edwin Edwards. This is an excellent coverage of Edwards sucessful comeback as the Governor of Louisiana. You are able to witness first hand the fundraising machine that Edward's put into motion to unseat an incumbent Republican governor. Also interesting were the numerous campaign rallies that was put together by the Edward's organization. You would definitely have to say that there is not a better book about elections in Louisian than this one. This is definitely a must read for all students of politics.
