Rezensionen

"Tony Bennett's 'Race for the White House' is wonderfully readable and insightful. He nicely combines history, political science and commentary to recount and analyze what happened, and why, in five important presidential elections. Leave it to a Brit to explain so well American politics to Americans." - David Skaggs, former US Congressman

"Anthony Bennett has provided a rigorous, clear and balanced analysis of the road to the White House. As well as providing vivid historical sketches of successive races, Bennett offers a comprehensive account of the changes in nominating processes that have shaped, for better and worse, who gets to the White House and why. This is a welcome and important addition to the scholarship on the politics of presidential selection." - Robert Singh, Professor of Politics, Birkbeck University of London, UK

"Anthony Bennett's book offers a polished overview of the subject. It combines a wealth of detail with a fluency of style. It provides an excellent 'next step' for those wishing to move beyond the introductory textbooks." - Edward Ashbee, Associate Professor, Department of Business and Politics, Copenhagen Business School, Denmark
