Oscar Underwood deserves the careful details and candid assessment given him by Evans Johnson [as] the only man since Henry Clay to lead his party in both houses of Congress.... This book [is] a solid definitive study. - Journal of Southern History ""Faithfully reflects its subject, a skilled legislator.... The final chapter 'The Pattern of a Bourbon Elitist,' stands as an independent biographical essay and satisfactorily summarizes Underwood's career. A complete political biography."" - Alabama Review
