Very good in Very good jacket. Xzvii, [1], 220, [2] pages. Minor edge soiling. Paperclip mark to fep. Foreword by Robert Novak. Afterword by William Murchison. Index. Inscribed and signed by the author on the front free endpaper. Inscription reads: To Bernie Robinson, my friend and fellow conservative footsoldier. Hope this tells part of the story of the other side of the '60s generation. Tom Pauken, 2-6-95. Thomas Weir "Tom" Pauken (born January 11, 1944) is an American politician and member of the Republican Party. Pauken is a former member and chairman of the Texas Workforce Commission. A former long-term resident of Dallas, who now resides in the resort community of Port Aransas in Nueces County on the Texas Gulf Coast, Pauken is a businessman, lawyer, and the author of two books. He served as chairman of the Texas Republican Party from 1994 to 1997 during the transition period when the party leaped quickly from minority to majority status at the statewide level. A staunch conservative, Pauken also served on President Ronald W. Reagan's White House staff. On August 21, 2006, Governor Rick Perry named Pauken to chairman the Texas Task Force on Appraisal Reform (TFAR) to study and make recommendations on how to address Texans' continuing concerns over property appraisals. In March 2008, Perry appointed Pauken chairman of the Texas Workforce Commission (TWC), which administers state unemployment compensation benefits, provides workforce development services, and maintains and issues state labor market data. Pauken oversaw the development of the Texas Back to Work program. Here, for the first time, is a memoir by a conservative footsoldier, who also played a significant role in the Reagan administration. Most of the leading sixties conservatives have not received the media coverage afforded liberal-left leaders like Tom Hayden or Sam Brown, so this book is an especially valuable guide to the leadership and philosophy of this political cohort. Soon after he completed this book, Pauken was elected chairman of the Republican Party of Texas.
