Taking Charge, edited by Michael R. Beschloss, whom Newsweek has called "America's leading presidential historian," brings you into the room with an American political legend, still hated and revered a quarter century after his death. We hear Lyndon Johnson as he schemes and blusters, rewards and punishes, tells tales of Washington, D.C., and Texas, and reveals a bedrock core of unshakable political beliefs.
The only President to record his private conversations from his first day in office, LBJ ordered the tapes to be locked in a vault until at least the year 2023. But now they have been unsealed, providing a close-up look at a President taking power such as we have never had before -- from John F. Kennedy's murder in November 1963 to Johnson's campaign for a landslide victory.
Taking Charge is filled with revelations about the full-blooded Texan behind the public image. You will hear LBJ:
An extraordinary audiobook, Taking Charge gives us an uprecidented look into a crucial presidency that continues to shape our lives today. In LBJ's own words, it is history "with the bark off."
Michael R. Beschloss is a historian and the author of three previous books -- The Crisis Years: Kennedy and Krushchev, 1960-1963; Mayday: Eisenhower, Krushchev and the U-2 Affair; and Kennedy and Roosevelt: The Uneasy Alliance. He is a regular commentator on PBS's The NewsHour with Jim Lehrer and lives in Washington, D.C.
