Book Reviews of Huey Long
Book Review: One of the best historical biographies I have read!
Summary: 5 Stars
Huey Long was a was an amazing politician and a contradiction.
A man of the people who came close to establishing a dictatorship in
Lousianna. He overturned a corupt political system operated by the
Lousianna's wealthy old families, and gave basic services to the poor
of his state. Despite Long's liberal program, one of the greatest fears
of many liberal New Deal Democrats was that Huey Long would
succeed Roosevelt as president. Williams does the almost impossible,
he helps the reader comprehend the contradition that was Huey Long.
