Pennsylvania Avenue : profiles in backroom power / John Harwood and Gerald Seib.
A new class of politician and radically different ways of conducting business now exist in Washington. Through stories of party strategists, money men, policy-makers, fixers, socialites, lobbyists, spinners, deal-makers, and more, authors Harwood and Seib explore the great political transformations that have fundamentally altered the relationship between Americans and their government.--From publisher description.
