High Low Washington turns the spotlight and floodlight on persons and issues on the national stage disclosing Congressmen and Senators, civil servants, visitors for pleasure and visitors for profit, bankers and prime ministers. A witty and a searching book crammed with anecdote and interesting analysis of our national and international predicament. A book for American men and women to discuss and quote. XX Chapter Headings Include: City of Magnificent Intentions; We Want a Mussolini; Airs and Graces, Grand Old Parties; Wider Yet and Wider, My District 'Tis Of Thee; The Washington Sounding Board; David and Goliath; Frenzied Finance, Misery and Grandeur.
