1.Lyndon Johnson and the American DreamLyndon Johnson and the American Dream
from St. Martin's Griffin
Price: $13.57

Customer Review:
Doris Kearns Goodwin's biography of Johnson is not a lengthy tome, and it covers the life of one of the most interesting, practical, effective, troubled and troubling figures in American politics sometimes in too cursory a fashion. Anyone who has read what Caro has written (so far!) in his... more info

from Vintage
Price: $13.57

Customer Review:
I had read Robert Caro's book on Robert Moses, and I found Master of the Senate to be an equally well-written and insightful read about an even more complicated figure. Readers get a real sense of the dark character of Lyndon Johnson. The book also offers a revealing view of the inner workings of... more info

4.Blood, Money and Power: How L.B.J. Killed J.F.K.Blood, Money & Power: How L.B.J. Killed J.F.K.
from Hannover House
Price: $16.47

Customer Review:
This book is almost as phony as his son's recent book about President Bush. I guess making things up and lying for money runs in the family. Can't wait until he sells the film rights to Oliver "Che" Stone.

5.Means of Ascent (The Years of Lyndon Johnson, Volume 2)Means of Ascent (The Years of Lyndon Johnson, Volume 2)
from Vintage
Price: $13.60

Customer Review:
Means of Ascent traces Johnson's career from a rather lackluster legislator (i.e. in passing national legislation) in the U.S. House of Representatives, to his all or nothing gamble on the 1948 Texas U.S. Senate race. In between these years, we learn of Johnson's "war service", his wife's role in... more info

7.Lyndon B. Johnson: Portrait of a PresidentLyndon B. Johnson: Portrait of a President
from Oxford University Press, USA
Price: $22.50

Customer Review:
Given the complexity of both the man and the times he lived in I would have thought that a one volume biography of Lyndon Johnson was impossible. While certain sacrifices are made, for example the LBJ's relationships with his contemporaries are often glossed over, the book does its job and portrays... more info

I am just a bit bemused by this opportunity. The Presidency of Lyndon B. Johnson was commissioned by University Press of Kansas as part of its Bicentennial Series evaluating all of our Presidents.

from Simon & Schuster
Price: $21.95

Customer Review:
This is a terrific collection that must be listened to rather than read and that, in tracking developments in Vietnam, is more significant than the materials in the first volume. Beschloss is an excellent editor, who provides the necessary context and background for each tape.
