Now, in \u003ci\u003eThe Luckiest Man\u003c\/i\u003e, Salter draws on the storied facets of McCain's early biography as well as the later-in-life political philosophy for which the nation knew and loved him, delivering an intimate and comprehensive account of McCain's life and philosophy. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSalter covers all the major events of McCain's life--his peripatetic childhood, his naval service--but introduces, too, aspects of the man that the public rarely saw and hardly knew. Woven throughout this narrative is also the story of Salter and McCain's close relationship, including how they met, and why their friendship stood the test of time in a political world known for its fickle personalities and frail bonds. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThrough Salter's revealing and \"psychological portrait\" (\u003ci\u003eThe Washington Post\u003c\/i\u003e) of one of our country's finest public servants, McCain emerges as both the man we knew him to be and also someone entirely new. Glimpses of his restlessness, his curiosity, his courage, and sentimentality are rendered with sensitivity and care--as only Mark Salter could provide. The capstone to Salter's intimate and decades-spanning time with the Senator, \u003ci\u003eThe Luckiest Man\u003c\/i\u003e is the authoritative last word on the stories McCain was too modest to tell himself and an influential life not soon to be forgotten.\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 608\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.5 x 8.1 x 5.4 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 16, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51767877599520,"sku":"9781982120948","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/aeb8ecddb2bb60a1b793b575cfc23dc5.webp?v=1780319343","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/the-luckiest-man-life-with-john-mccain-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
