Books by Garry Wills

3. Garry Wills, Nixon Agonistes: The Crisis of the Self-Made Man .  For such a long book about a topic I don’t wish to read any more about, this is compelling.  It has many excellent sentences, such as “Nixon is a Market ascetic, and politics is his business.  On it he lavishes an intensity of dedication that is literally consuming.”  Every President should have a book this good about him.
