Henry M. Jackson by Robert G Kaufman

Henry M Jackson's congressional career spanning the tenure of nine Presidents, Jackson had an enormous impact on the most crucial foreign policy and defense issues of the Cold War era, as well as a marked impact on energy policy, civil rights, and other watershed issues in domestic politics. This book presents the life and times of Jackson.

Kaufman’s cogent analyses of critical episodes and decisions in which Jackson had a part contribute usefully to knowledge of an era, particularly in energy policy, America’s Cold War and international human rights roles, and the travails of liberalism and the Democratic Party
