[Jaylen Baker · Rating 4 out of 5]

For a burgeoning political operative in 2024 it is a historical text and needs to be taken in the context as such. Nonetheless, it’s a compilation of important figures and a divulgence of experiential learning through intentional storytelling on behalf of these 20th century political giants. Enjoyable and worth a look if you’re into or working in politics.

A history of the pioneers of political consulting. Great stuff if you're in the field.
