This is an extremely well written and researched political history of huey p. long, governor and senator of louisiana in the 1920s and 1930s. Long was a fascinating subject, and this book is a pleasure to read. Long was a charismatic and brilliant politician, who flagrantly abused his power. His political life is testament to the potential frailty of democratic institutions. The author briefly compares Long to Hitler, but I was disappointed that he otherwise does not specifically address his relevance to contemporary politics, such as the questions that have been raised regarding President Bush's use of power. Another minor quibble is that Long's psychological background is not addressed. This would have helped the reader understand better the circumstances under which demagogues and megalomaniacs like Long can rise to power.
