    Description of Man of the People

    This inside account of the life of presidential hopeful John McCain - is now abridged, revised, and updated. In this new paperback edition, Paul Alexander sets the stage for where McCain is now - the presumptive 2008 Republican presidential nominee. As the presidential race heats up and the economy sags farther into recession, McCain will be in the spotlight as a national leader, a true patriot (he has been awarded the Silver Star, the Bronze Star, the Legion of Merit, the Purple Heart, and the Distinguished Flying Cross), and a maverick whose bipartisanship has not just been political, but sincere.With new material that addresses the 2004 and 2006 elections, McCain's position on the war in Iraq, and legislation such as the McCain-Kennedy immigration bill, Alexander takes us inside McCain's personal and professional life to shed fresh light on one of the nation's most important political leaders. Paul Alexander (New York, NY) is a freelance journalist whose work has appeared in publications such as the "New York Times" and "Rolling Stone". Alexander is also the author of biographies on James Dean, Sylvia Plath, and J. D. Salinger.
