Much of this nation's political life and public policy have been
shaped by a handful of powerful people--the leaders of the U.S.
House of Representatives. "Masters of the House" identifies
enduring patterns of House leadership, explaining the effects of
such factors as party strength, White House-Congressional
relations, leaders' formal prerogatives, members' expectations,
public attitudes, shifts in the policy agenda, and leaders'
personal attributes and style. Ten chapters cover such colorful and
diverse personalities as Henry Clay, Joe Cannon, Hale Boggs, and
Tip O'Neill. Coeditors Roger Davidson, Susan Hammond, and Raymond
Smock have blended essays by political scientists, historians, and
journalists into an integrated treatment of House leadership over
time, including an analysis of emerging trends in the 1990s.
