Seller's Description:
Very Good. Size: 6x1x9; [Association Copy, inscribed by W. Marvin Watson on half title page. ] Hardcover and dust jacket. Good binding and cover. Shelf wear. Corner bumped. Clean, unmarked pages. *Autographed by author. * W. Marvin Watson was a World War II combat veteran who ran Lyndon B. Johnson's White House with the protective instincts of a loyalist, the privileged power of a confidant and the efficiency of a drill sergeant. President Johnson did not want to give any staff member the title of chief of staff, but he eventually made Mr. Watson his in all but name. When he arrived at the White House in early 1965, Mr. Watson, a fellow Texan and proud 'Johnson man' by his own description, had been a political ally of the president's since Johnson's successful run for the United States Senate in 1948. In 1964, Mr. Watson had smoothed the way for Johnson's nomination at the Democratic National Convention in Atlantic City, nine months after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.
