Notes
Index
Dean J. Kotlowski is Professor of History at Salisbury University in Maryland, author of Nixon's Civil Rights: Politics, Principle, and Policy, and editor of The European Union: From Jean Monnet to the Euro.
"Kotlowski works in multiple contexts ranging from Indiana history to the development of liberalism in America to internal presidential politics to America's colonial empire, but he also has a feel for McNutt the man... He situates the story within the best recent historiography... and makes a good case for exploring FDR from the margins while focusing on McNutt." - Allan M. Winkler, author of Franklin D. Roosevelt and the Making of Modern America "Paul McNutt was one of the New Deal era's most activist governors. His determined leadership brought change in a state reluctant to change and placed him on the national stage as a presidential contender. Dean Kotlowski's superbly researched biography brings new understanding to McNutt's personal and political life and makes for absorbing reading." - James H. Madison, author of Hoosiers: A New History of Indiana
