Recenzii
The documents are uniformly interesting, and some have been edited for length. There is a good subject and personal name index. This volume, part of the publisher's Documents Decoded series, complements a similar book on the Democratic Party (2014) and one on presidential campaigns (CH, May'14, 51-4801). Suitable for academic or public library collections. Summing Up: Highly recommended. All academic audiences; general readers; journalists.
