Illustrated by
Kimanne Smith.
This introductory biography concentrates on the populist Long's positive contributions to Louisiana, including better roads, free textbooks, good hospitals, and a strong state university. Alluding only briefly to such negatives as his political machine and charges of corruption, the book emphasizes his propensity toward action surrounded by cascades of talk. Detailed art notable for its period authenticity supports the text.
