Warren G. Magnuson and the Shaping of Twentieth-Century America

Warren G. Magnuson served as U.S. senator from the state of Washington for six terms. The sheer sweep of his accomplishments is astonishing: authoring the 1964 Civil Rights Act, protecting Puget Sound, saving Boeing for Seattle, championing consumer protection legislation, reorganizing the railroads, and godfathering the electrification of the Pacific Northwest by pressing for Columbia and Snake River dams. He pushed for federal aid to education, kept Pentagon budgets down, and established the National Institutes of Health while arguing throughout the McCarthy era against U.S. isolation from China. He was also a whiskey-and-poker companion to Presidents Roosevelt, Truman, Kennedy, and Johnson.

This volume, the first full-length bibliography on Harding, provides full access to the Harding literature.Including over 3,000 entries, the work provides wide coverage of foreign policy and domestic policies that were formative for the entire decade of the 1920s. In addition to political and administration coverage, the book includes Harding's personal life and times. Entries include books, scholarly articles, contemporary writings, newspapers, manuscripts, photographs, and films relating to Harding and his administration. Chapters are devoted to early and mature stages of his life, Harding iconography, and figures important to his administration. The section on Harding's presidency includes foreign policies and domestic areas, such as business and economics, labor, agriculture, and topics of particular importance for the early 1920s, such as the Soldiers' Bonus, the tariff, and the Bureau of the Budget. The bibliography will be useful to all scholars doing research on the Harding era and the 1920s.

Warren William

On the motion picture screen, Hollywood star Warren William (1894-1948) was a magnificent rogue, often deliciously immoral and utterly callous, yet remarkably likable in his wickedness. Off-screen, the actor was as humble and retiring as his film characters were mean and heartless. This biography examines William's life and career in detail, from his rural Minnesota roots through his service in World War I, his Broadway stage success, and his meteoric rise and gradual fall from Hollywood fame in the 1930s and 1940s. Also analyzed are his film persona and the curious mechanisms by which our culture "selects" certain film personalities to remember and others to forget. Featured is a wealth of biographical material never before available, including rare candid photos of William's early years. Interviews with his surviving nieces provide intimate family details and personal remembrances.
