Set in the '30s, this Pulitzer Prize-winning novel traces the rise
and fall of demagogue Willie Stark, a fictional character who
resembles the real-life Huey "Kingfish" Long of Louisiana. Stark
begins his political career as an idealistic man of the people but
soon becomes corrupted by success and caught between dreams of
service and an insatiable lust for power. The model for 1996's
best-selling novel, Primary Colors, and as relevant today as it was
fifty years ago, All the King's Men is one of the classics of
American literature.
