Looking Back: Heroes, Rascals, and Other Icons of the American Imagination
by Russell Baker
Journalist and commentator Russell Baker has been a keen observer of American politics and culture, and in these eleven essays he looks back on a group of iconic public figures from his own past, including LBJ and Nixon, Eugene V. Debs and Barry Goldwater ("gentlemen fallen among brutes"), Joe DiMaggio, and Martin Luther King. With an elegiac yet shrewd sense of their accomplishments, he traces the impressions they left on America—and on him.
