Summary: An excellent and rigourous take on public opinion.
Comment: This book is an excellent piece of scholarship. There was an ncredible amount of hype on all sides of the Iran-Contra scandal, but, with sound methodology and incredible research of letters sent to congressmembers, he seeks to reclaim the American voice during the period. He skewers Olliemania and Reagan's teflon coating, but only as the facts present it, and gives a wide array of opinion. This book is necessary for any good study of the period.
