Bobby Baker was a small-town southern boy when he arrived in
Washington in 1943, but he had a sure sense of political clout. He
soon knew which senator wanted what done—almost before the
senator knew himself. Senator Robert Kerr was the first instrument
of Bobby Baker’s rise. He found an even more powerful sponsor in
Lyndon Johnson, and he rose with Johnson until no doors were closed
to him. He tells here a unique insider’s story of the always
fascinating ways of power in the Congress of the United States.
