\"The<\/a> I spent a good chunk of the day reading Pat Buchanan\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s amazingly fine new book, The Greatest Comeback<\/a><\/strong>, on his association with Richard Nixon from late 1965 until Nixon\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s amazing victory in the \u00e2\u20ac\u212268 election for President. The book is a masterpiece. Others, better at reviewing than I am, will review this book. I will just say I was entranced, astonished, overwhelmed by Pat\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s observations, his insights, his poetry, the scope of his vision. He is not afraid to be politically incorrect. He is overwhelmingly pro-RN, of course, but compelled to point out logical and historical mistakes in Nixon\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s worldview. Above all, The Greatest Comeback is the ultimate insider\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s guide to how the great game of presidential politics is played. I cannot think of a better way to spend your time or your book-buying dollar than on this book. The section on Nixon and Pat\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s trip to Africa in 1967 and what happened to the leaders they met on that trip will make you gasp.<\/p>\n

All in all, for anyone interested in 20th century politics and how the human spirit works within the political process, and the most fascinating man ever to sit in the Oval Office, The Greatest Comeback is must reading. Chapter and verse to follow from the reviewers… my brain reeled at how much Pat Buchanan knows, how funny he is, and how well he writes.<\/p>\n
