5.0 out of 5 stars Betty Glad's "In Search of the Great White House", August 25, 2003
By 
Jim Carter (Valdosta, Ga. United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Jimmy Carter: In Search of the Great White House (Hardcover)
For anyone interested in the man (Carter) before he became President, and the strategies behind his successful rise to the nation's top elected office, this book is quite helpful. Glad makes excellent use of the materials available to her at the time. Also, her inclusion opf references provide ample jumping off points top anyone interested in pursuing either Carter's early political career, or Georgia/southern US politics in the 1960s and 1970s. Glad's writing style is eloquent, informative, and entertaining. An excellent investment for the political historian, or the average reader.
