Convention

By: Fletcher Knebel and Charles W. Bailey

A Republican National Convention, complete with the intrigue, excitement, joy, and disappointment that accompany politics, supplies the background for this fictionalized rendition of the process by which a presidential candidate is chosen. Secretary of the Treasury Charles B. Manchester, the party's leading candidate, goes to the nominating convention in Chicago with high hopes only to see union leaders, the President, and a majority of the delegates turn against him as he reveals his platform.
