THE
EVAN BAYH LIBRARY:
From
Father to Son: A Private Life in the Public Eye by
Evan Bayh (2003) - Evan Bayh used to this book to write about
the political tradition in the Bayh family that ran from his father
to himself. Bayh recounts his life in the national spotlight with
affection and candor. He covered all the highlights of his ongoing
career in government: from his father's US Senate campaigns and
a sleep-over in the Lincoln Bedroom during the Johnson Administration,
to delivering the Keynote address at the 1996 Convention (a moment
he shared with his young twin sons). Bayh also used the book to
promote a piece of legislation in Congress he touts as "The
Responsible Fatherhood Act." This book never received much
attention and showed up in few bookstores - but you can find it
online. List: $24.99. Your Price:
$21.24 (You Save 15%).
