Before and After: Lyndon Baines Johnson

Johnson's a fascinating character. I'm hoping to read/listen to more history about Johnson. It's hard for me to hate him (ala "Hey hey LBJ, how many kids you kill today") because of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. But I didn't live through those times (I'm 43).

I agree with Claudia. Especially since I've moved to Texas, where Lady Bird Johnson is a social and political icon.
