Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. First Printing [Stated]. 24 cm, 269, bibliography, index. Foreword by Ralph Abernathy. A Note on Sources. Index. Thomas Landess graduated from Deerfield Academy in Massachusetts, received a B.A. and M.A. from Vanderbilt University, served in the United States Army, and received a Ph.D. from the University of South Carolina. Tom taught at Vanderbilt University, Converse College, Furman University, and the University of Dallas for a combined period of over two decades. He published several books and over 100 articles, poems, and reviews for such scholarly publications as the Sewanee Review, the Southern Review, and the Georgia Review. In 1982, he left academia and began serving as a ghost writer for major political figures and organizations. Tom proudly served Presidents Reagan and Bush at the U.S. Department of Education. In 1997 he and his wife returned to South Carolina and lived in Columbia where Tom continued writing. He was a regular contributor to Chronicles: A magazine of American Culture. Editorial Reviews: Landess and Quinn have produced what they consider a ``realistic, not romantic'' rendering of the political life of the man they contend used race politics to advance his own aspirations for wealth and power. They paint Jackson as a modern-day black populist in the mold of Southern-white spellbinders like the Talmadges, Longs, and Bilbos. The book is saturated with accusations that Jackson has tended to exaggerate events and play fast and loose with the truth. As proof, examples abound, including references to Jackson's exaggeration of his youth as one of abject poverty and to his problems with funding and tax reports on Operation Push. Landess and Quinn also portray Jackson as a man who desired to be the best-respected black leader at the expense of others in SCLC, and as one who would divide the races unlike Dr. King, who sought unity. Controversial, daring and recommended. Reviewed by Frank Kessler, Political Science Dept., Missouri Western State College, St. Joseph. Artikel-Nr. 39258
