Title: Matters of State: A Political Excursion
Author: Philip Hamburger
ISBN: 9781582430843
Publisher: Counterpoint
Published: 2001
Binding: Hardcover
Language: English
Edition: First Edition
Number of Pages: 240
Publisher Description: This collection of essays, chosen by the author from his sixty years of writing for The New Yorker, chronicles not only the people of our nation's political life (Judge Learned Hand Fiorello La Guardia, Dean Acheson, FDR, Eisenhower, Reagan, Clinton) but also the places and events, with special emphasis on presidential inaugurations (he has attended, he thinks, fourteen). Here is one man's view, both funny and serious, of the glorious diversity of American politics -- and of the better angels of our nature.
