Recensione:
Day after day and year after year, the most consulted, respected, and influential book in Washington.
"That Washington bible, packed with detail about national and state politics...is a legendary stand-by."
-- The Economist
"The single best reference there is for Congress and Washington specifically and the country generally."
-- Jim Lehrer, The NewsHour
"Indispensable...If politics is the art of the possible, this compendium of statistics and information has gone as far as humanly possible."
-- "Fun reading...The Almanac of American Politics knows every detail of this country's political landscape and in the process includes enough odd facts to satisfy any trivia buff."
-- "Michael Barone is to politics what statistician-writer Bill James is to baseball, a mix of historian, social observer, and numbers cruncher who illuminates his subject with perspective and a touch of irreverence."
