Reseña del editor
In the first modern systematic examination of the bond between morals and politics, Marvin Olasky examines the lives and careers of thirteen noted American leaders, including the great, the good, and the deeply flawed, from George Washington, Henry Clay, and Booker T. Washington to Woodrow Wilson, John F. Kennedy, and Bill Clinton. Olasky looks closely at the connections between religion, sexual practices, and political decisions, examining the repeated connections between private character and public action. He explains how so-called "compartmentalization" proved to be as impossible for Lincoln as for Woodrow Wilson.
Reseña del editor
In the tradition of Richard Hofstadter's The American Political Tradition and the Men Who Made It, Marvin Olasky's God, Sex, and Statesmanship provides a new way to understand politics and leadership in America. Whereas Hofstadter's classic focused on the role of economics and class, Olasky's thoughtful new study emphasizes the importance of religion and ethics.
Profiling 13 American statesmen -- from presidents like Jefferson, Lincoln, Wilson, Franklin Roosevelt, and John Kennedy to leaders like Booker T. Washington and John Rockefeller -- Olasky looks at their religious beliefs, family fidelity, political style, and accomplishments.
Penetrating and provocative, with an eye for telling anecdotes, God, Sex, and Statesmanship offers keen insight into how character in the presidency is paramount.
