Five Days in Philadelphia by Charles Peters
Presents a story of the rowdy political convention that produced the unlikeliest of candidates and thereby had the unanticipated result of saving the world from fascism. This work shows that the five action-packed days and their improbable outcome were as important as the Battle of Britain in defeating the Nazis.
Charles Peters managed John F Kennedy's 1960 primary in West Virginia's largest county, then moved to Washington DC to help launch the Peace Corps and to found the Washington Monthly, which he edited for thirty-one years. His previous books include How Washington Really Works, which the New York Times called "wise, funny".
