Plain dealing

Description:

"Son of an Ohio Supreme Court Justice and longtime political reporter, Rick Zimmerman presents Ohio politics from the inside. He began learning about Ohio politics and politicians as a young boy, sitting at the dinner table presided over by his father, Judge Charles Ballard Zimmerman." "In the same way his father entertained with his reminiscences, author Rick Zimmerman tells stories of and on Ohio's politicians and their machinations, including governors, senators, and congressmen. His discussions of Watergate, his African sabbatical, and the National Press Club and his reflections on the state of journalism are refreshing, witty, and insightful. Plain Dealing is a memoir that doubles as an irreverent look at Ohio's political history."--Jacket.
