The luckiest man [large print] : life with John McCain / Mark Salter.

Salter, Mark, (author.).

Summary:

"More so than almost anyone outside John McCain's immediate family, Mark Salter had unparalleled access to Senator McCain. Salter served to influence the senator's thoughts and actions, cowriting several books with him and acting as a valued confidant. Now, Salter draws on the storied facets of McCain's early biography as well as the later-in-life political philosophy for which the nation knew and loved him, delivering an intimate and comprehensive account of McCain's life and philosophy. The Luckiest Man is the authoritative last word on the stories McCain was too modest to tell himself, and an influential life not soon to be forgotten"-- Provided by publisher.
