Cats frequently see more clearly local, regional and national issues than do politicians. This is a classic case with Bill Clinton's feline friend Socks, writing to University of Iowa professor emeritus Lyle W. Shannon's cunning campanion, Cretin, an older cat who read newspapers, listened to learned discussion and carried on a ponderous correspondence. The senior Shannon has carefully compiled the thoughts of the two cats. It's spirited, insightful, and fun reading.

This review is from: Socks and Cretin : Two Democats Helping Bill With the Presidency (Paperback)
Professor Shannon has a knack for perking our interest in politics through warm hearted writing. It's a fun little read even if you know nothing about Iowa politics.
