An accessible, informed, and timely biography of Lyndon Johnson that centers his life and presidency around the passage of the Voting Rights Act.Keenly known for both his triumphs and his failures, Lyndon B. Johnson was one of the most complex and compelling presidents in US history. Anne Quirks biography alternates between chapters that follow LBJs childhood in rural Texas learning politics from his parents, his time teaching Mexican American students at a smalltown school, and his days in Congress as majority leader and as vice president; and chapters that cover his work alongside civil rights leaders and the passage of the Voting Rights Act. An epilogue discusses the Supreme Courts 2013 ruling that struck down key portions of the act.With engaging storytelling, Quirk paints a rich portrait of Johnsons presidency, celebrating the accomplishments of his Great Society programs while refusing to shy away from his catastrophic decisions regarding Vietnam and the summer riots of 1967. Larger Than Life presents striking parallels to todays political arena: an outsize character presiding over a divided nationbut to different ends. 30 blackandwhite photographs
