The Best President the Nation Never Had
WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING:
“Roland’s integral involvement with Sam Nunn from the outset of the Senate campaign through more than half of his service in the Senate provides an extraordinary eye witness perspective on the abilities, principles and work ethic of a consequential Georgia and national public figure. The conversational and insider style of the accounts makes the book credible, easy to read and enjoyable, while providing unparalleled historic context. Roland has deftly provided the reader with a window on the role Sam Nunn played in transitioning Georgia into the New South era, while at the same time leading the Senate on national security matters over a quarter of a century.”
– Hon. Gordon Giffin, former U.S. Ambassador to Canada,
and former legislative director to Senator Nunn
“Roland McElroy—there at the beginning—provides the definitive, personal and powerful first-hand account of Senator Nunn’s long-shot campaign and early years in the U.S. Senate.His previously untold insights and gripping writing is a tremendous history of a man who became one of the Senate’s most powerful and revered statesmen.”
– Arnold Punaro, retired Marine Corp Major General
and former staff director for the Senate Armed Services Committee
“Roland McElroy details the 1972 campaign and Senate career of Sam Nunn, one of the last conservative democrats elected to the U.S. Senate from the South.Historic and well written, it follows the career of a man who often stood alone on many issues, not yielding to party politics.”
– Connell Stafford, former vice president, government affairs,
Coca-Cola Company, former executive assistant to Senator Nunn
