Combining biography with regional and national history, Dan T.
Carter chronicles the dramatic rise and fall of George Wallace, a
populist who abandoned his ideals to become a national symbol of
racism, and later begged for forgiveness. In The Politics of Rage,
Carter argues persuasively that the four-time Alabama governor and
four-time presidential candidate helped to establish the
conservative political movement that put Ronald Reagan in the White
House in 1980 and gave Newt Gingrich and the Republicans control of
Congress in 1994. In this second edition, Carter updates Wallace's
story with a look at the politician's death and the nation's
reaction to it and gives a summary of his own sense of the legacy
of "the most important loser in twentieth-century American
politics".
