Sample Book Insights:
#1 The city of Washington, D. C. , is an imperial city. It produces laws, Supreme Court decisions, regulations in the Federal Register, circulars from the Office of Management and Budget, a trillion dollars of contracts a year, and gossip.
#2 While Washington was becoming more and more diverse, it was still largely a southern city, and its powerful committee chairman were mostly geriatric southern Dixiecrats.
#3 In 1971, Washington acquired the Kennedy Center, a performing arts center, and the Watergate complex, which was significant not only for its size but also for its political symbolism. The city began to shed its southern, small-city provincialism and became more definable as a burgeoning metropolis producing politics as blood sport and a governing elite intent on conducting perpetual and lucrative wars.
#4 The town of Washington was changing, and not just because of the government. It was becoming a center of contractors, lobbyists, media organizations, and think tanks that fed off the government.
