<p>"Price's story is more than just a helpful explainer for the more recent thorny and contentious debates over child tax credits. It’s also a portrait of a Republican party that once knew how to broker its own coalition, governing through the power of two wings, a conservative ‘base,’ and an ‘establishment’ leadership."—<i>Law & Liberty</i></p><p>"Price’s compelling and persuasive book will be of great interest to those who study domestic policy as well as party politics."—<i>Political Science Quarterly</i></p><p>"Contains abundant, telling historical detail and analysis."—<i>Choice</i></p> <p>"Are you ready for some revisionism? Price’s Nixon was trying to bring the country together. He understood that politics was ‘poetry’—you needed more than good policy positions. But good ones he had. His domestic policies would have ended the financial incentives to break up low-income families and would have kept catastrophic health issues from bankrupting middle-class families. We see Nixon doing the right thing because it is the right thing. This book is thought-provoking from beginning to end."—Nicholas Evan Sarantakes, author of <i>Fan in Chief: Richard Nixon and American Sports, 1969–1974</i></p><p>"John Roy Price’s <i>The Last Liberal Republican</i> is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the Nixon presidency as well as the presidential/congressional relationship as it relates to domestic policymaking. Price’s memoir not only explains the domestic policy agenda during a seminal point in American history but also shows how a Republican president worked with a Democratic Congress to revise and expand parts of the New Deal and Great Society agendas. Price’s ability to illustrate the policy battles as they played out on the political frontlines makes this book essential reading."—Lori Cox Han, author of <i>Advising Nixon: The White House Memos of Patrick J. Buchanan</i></p><p>"For all those who thought there was nothing more—nothing new—to say about Richard Nixon, John Roy Price has a surprise, and an important one. Here is a Nixon seldom seen, a Nixon leaning left even as he moved the Republicans right, a Nixon worried about his place in history even as he was soiling his place in history. No biography of the thirty-seventh president written in the remainder of this century can be unaffected by this vital and indispensable book."—David Shribman, Pulitzer Prize–winning nationally syndicated columnist and former executive editor, <i>Pittsburgh Post-Gazette</i></p><p>"John Roy Price’s <i>The Last Liberal Republican</i> is an indispensable memoir about working the domestic policy beat for President Richard Nixon. Price writes well, has commanding knowledge of the era, and is determined to set the historical record straight. I consider it a gift to Cold War–era scholarship. Highly recommended!"—Douglas Brinkley, Katherine Tsanoff Brown Chair in Humanities and professor of history, Rice University, and coeditor of <i>The Nixon Tapes</i></p><p>"Not so very long ago the Republican Party was the home of serious policy thinkers and doers who believed in the power of the federal government to improve American lives and then exercised that power with skill and finesse. John Roy Price throve in that world, and in these pages he brings it captivatingly to life with fresh, nuanced portraits of Daniel Patrick Moynihan, Robert Finch, George Shultz, and many others, including, most remarkably, Richard Nixon. <i>The Last Liberal Republican</i> is just the book we need in our own illiberal time."—Sam Tanenhaus, author of <i>The Death of Conservatism: A Movement and Its Consequences</i> and <i>Whittaker Chambers: A Biography</i></p>
