Description
Walton argues persuasively that no modern president did more to remake his own political party than Lyndon Johnson. Timely too are his conclusions that LBJ’s Democratic Party and the opposition Republican Party were reshaped into the movements we recognize today, and that central to this seismic shift was the issue of race. This work offers an important contribution to the field of presidential studies. The research is impressive and original."" - Michael L. Collins, Regents Professor and Professor Emeritus, Midwestern State University
""An invaluable resource for students of Texas electoral history and the electoral career of Lyndon Johnson. For years to come this will be the work to go to on these subjects."" - Robert C. Smith, San Francisco State University
