Talks about a way of life that doesn't exist any more

This book talks about a way of life that doesn't exist anymore. Not only do we get insight into a U.S. senator's formative years--plowing behind horses on his father's farm and living without electricity or running water--we also see true non-partisan statesmanship at work. Today's Congress is so bitterly divided and so intent on making each political party look bad that we should fear for the future of our nation. Bellmon writes a straightforward autobiography that helps us to understand the "Greatest Generation" and how political life should be lived.
