The Democratic Message Epilogue IndexReviewsWell worth the attention of political junkies, students of American history, or anyone else who wants to know how politics really worked in the glory days of the Democratic Party... Van Dyk's memoir is a great read, a wonderful primer for those who might seek to enter politics themselves, and a terrific walk down memory lane. Boston Phoenix Van Dyk's story, particularly of the Humphrey-McGovern years, is one of the best accounts of that era in a long time.
