The dust jacket is in fair condition (edge chipping, one hole in a fold, tear along top edge). 12 ¼ x 10 ¼, 223 pages, 51 ounces XX [From the dust jacket] At the height of the dazzling demonstration for Sen. Barry Goldwater at the Republican Convention, NBC's David Brinkley was asked to explain the scene to European viewers watching the telecast via satellite. What he said could well serve to describe the entire process of selecting a President in America: "It is partly political, partly emotional, partly propaganda, partly a social mechanism, partly a carnival, and partly mass hysteria. It can be described as nonsense, and it often is —but somehow it works." It has worked for 132 years, and it worked again in 1964—one of the most bitter, tumultuous, and significant political campaigns in our history. It was, indeed, a year to remember, and here's a way to remember it all. In unforgettable words and pictures, this is the whole spectacular story—as covered by NBC News, the foremost organization in electronic journalism. What a fascinating cast of characters parades across these pages! Henry Cabot Lodge, while 10,000 miles away in Vietnam, scoring a stunning upset in the New Hampshire primary, Gov. Wallace campaigning in Wisconsin, Margaret Chase Smith simultaneously putting her hat in the ring and her tongue in her cheek, Gov. Scranton sending his scathing letter to Sen. Goldwater, Gov. Rockefeller being hooted by his own party, Susan Scranton weeping at her father's capitulation speech. Robert Kennedy receiving his tremendous ovation from the Democratic Delegates, the anguished Negro Republican delegates at San Francisco, the determined Freedom Democrats at Atlantic City, Lady Bird Johnson whistle-stopping through the South, President Johnson rolling up the greatest popular vote in history. Here, in a text illustrated by more than 100 magnificent photographs, is a searching investigation of what makes America behave as it does. In a remarkably written prologue, David Brinkley deduces the American character from a single campaign photograph. Chet Huntley's masterful epilogue ties together all the loose ends of a most complex political year. A series of specially prepared charts, based on NBC's own "Electronic Vote Analysis," clarifies the new ethnic, economic and religious voting patterns emerging from the election. Here is a gripping story, graphically told; a probing portrait of one of America's most revealing processes—the choosing of a President. Hollander, David; Paul Seligman (illustrator).…
