- Synopsis
- In 1976 Elizabeth Drew decided to keep a journal of the events of that crucial year. Among the reasons for the journal was that the country would be electing a President against the background of a particularly large number of questions, national and international, that were unresolved. What sets American Journal apart from other books is Ms. Drews focus on those enormous and complex issues that, regardless of who became or Chief Executive, will be with us for years to come: arms control and nuclear proliferation, energy policy, the economy, unemployment and inflation, among others. Through incisive interviews, dogged research, a thorough knowledge of the agencies and branches of the government and their checks and balances, plain common sense, and, above all, an almost uncanny ability to predict future events and trends, Ms. Drew delineates the perimeters of these issues, and helps her readers to foresee how they may be decided.
