OverviewGeorge McGovern - A Lifetime of Public Service is the biography of George McGovern, a former United States Representative, Senator, and Democratic presidential nominee. McGovern lost the 1972 presidential election in a landslide to incumbent Richard Nixon. Although he voted in favor of the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, McGovern later became a strong critic of defense spending, and was an early and vocal opponent of U.S. military involvement in Vietnam, often criticizing the policies of fellow Democrat, President Lyndon B. Johnson. George McGovern helped institute major changes in Democratic party rules-including the requirement that delegates to the party's nominating convention be diverse-which continues to this day. George McGovern - A Lifetime of Public Service is highly recommended for those interested in learning more about this respected American politician.
