Title: GOOD CONCLUSION TO A GOOD BIOGRAPHY
Review: Mr. Dallek has concluded his work addressing Lyndon Johnson and this years with this volume which covers the period of 1961 through 1973 which covers his presidency. As with the first volume, the author is far more sympathetic with this complex man than most of his recent biographers. It is my personal feeling, that Caro's work is better, but it is a good thing to read these two volumes by Dallek to get a more ballanced view. This was a difficult time in our history and Johnson and his contemporaries were difficult men (and women) to understand and judge. As with any story, we owe it to ourselves to examine all issues from as many angles as possible. Mr. Dallek has given us just one more of those angles. The book is well written and appears to have been well researched. I am glad I added this one to my Johnson collection and do recommend it.
