Building a Democratic Political Order: Reshaping American Liberalism in the 1930s and 1940s
This was a Pulitzer Prize nominee. There is much in this book to digest.
Geoff is my friend from San Mateo High School. We were both on the school newspaper.
He received his bachelor's at University of California, Berkeley; master's from UC Santa Barbara and doctorate from Berkeley. Geoff taught at Macalester College in St. Paul, MN before accepting a professorship at Queens University, Kingston, Ontario, Canada. He taught U.S. History and Kinesiology. He he a lifelong basketball player and sports fan. He is now Professor Emeritus and continues to live in Kingston pursuing his many passions, one of which is painting.
I am pleased to be counted as one of his friends. We have many lively discussions on Facebook and by email.
