Just Good Politics is the autobiography of Raymond Chafin, the savvy, free-wheeling political "boss" from Logan County, West Virginia, who managed political machinery for the elections of several state governors, U. S. senators, and, in 1960, for John F. Kennedy. It also provides a genuine bridge between our increasingly homgenized American society and a largely unexamined part of rural mountain life.
