In a time when the United States Senate was still considered the greatest deliberative body in the world, Dorothye G. Scott was a witness to its greatest events and personalities. Through three decades and six presidential administrations, Scott served in the United States Senate. She tells of her professional and personal relationships with presidents, senators, and key political figures of the fifties, sixties, and seventies. Historical names like Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson, Nixon, Truman, are just a small part of the picture that Scott paints of the scenes behind the doors of the Senate. She gives readers glimpses into the inner workings of our democratic system and lends a personal point of view to the major historical events of those turbulent times.
