The Making of the President 1972 by Theodore H White

"[White] revolutionized the art of political reporting." --William F. Buckley

The Making of the President 1972 is the fourth book in Theodore H. White's landmark series, a riveting account of the 1972 presidential campaign and Richard M. Nixon's precedent-shattering landslide victory. White had made history with his groundbreaking narrative The Making of the President 1960, winning the Pulitzer Prize for revolutionizing the way that presidential campaigns were reported. Now, The Making of the President 1972--back in print, freshly repackaged, and with a new foreword by Cokie Roberts--joins Theodore Sorensen's Kennedy, White's The Making of the President 1960, 1964, and 1968, and other classics in the burgeoning Harper Perennial Political Classics series.

White (1915-1986) was an American political journalist, historian, and writer best known for his Making of the President series, which includes histories of the presidential elections of 1960, 1964, 1968, and 1972, all of which are being reissued by Harper Perennial Political Classics with new forewords. ThunderOut of China, America in Search of Itself, and In Search of History: A Personal Journey are among his other works.
