Jones portrays President Carter's seemingly antipolitical approach to politics and how it affected his often strained relations with Congress. Using the extensive interviews conducted with President Carter and senior members of the White House shortly after Carter's term ended, Jones considers the political context of Carter's extraordinary nomination and electoral victories in 1976, the new type of Congress that he faced in 1977, and the approach to Congress that was developed throughout the Carter years. The book seeks to explain more than to criticize, to understand more than to judge"--Jacket.
