...that the huge state and its more than 5,000,000 registered Democrats (Republican cross-voting is not permitted) can be reached by door-to-door and personal telephone drives. The Humphrey strategists buy the conventional view that it is a "media state," reachable mainly by radio, television and print. The possibility that McGovern's drive could pay off even in Humphrey's natural constituency among minorities was bolstered by two impressive new endorsements of McGovern-from Coretta King and Cesar Chavez...

It is a man's world. It is a world of immense wealth, of private airplanes equipped with tiled showers and Roman baths in inner offices, all described with goggle-eyed wonder. The book's main plot is a conflict in investment strategy between Milliken, who thinks that prices can go only up, and his boss, Choate Cavendish, who lives for the day when such whippersnappers...
