Stewart Udall, Secretary of the Interior to President Kennedy, and his wife Lee enriched cultural heritage with their cultural initiatives and patronages. Finch (historian and retiree, National Parks Service) was part of the Washington scene in the Camelot years as well as a friend to Udall, giving him an insider's view to the cultural change that the Udalls fostered, including the growing partnership between the government and the arts during the Kennedy-Johnson administration. The story is told in an easy and accessible voice and illustrated throughout with black-and-white photographs. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
