Our local library is giving away some older books...

I picked up one by Dana Milbank, "Homo Politicus."

I've never heard of this author, or the book.

Anyone else read it?

Bush era stuff. That was while he was toying with being the darling of the Liberal Elite.

FWIW, I got an early edition of "Fanny Farmer's Cookbook" for $1.00 at my local library used book sale". Now, that is a find!
