Amazon.com Edward F. Prichard Jr. was a powerful figure in both the Roosevelt and Truman administrations， but in 1948 his political career was shattered by an indictment for election fraud. FBI chief J. Edgar Hoover’s personal dislike of Prichard had ensured that， once his name came up， the FBI pursued the case with full vigor; after the conviction， Prichard was unable to appeal to the Supreme Court because too many of the justices had to recuse themselves from hearing a case involving their friend. (He did， however， receive a pardon from President Truman.) Tracy Campbell’s richly detailed biography shows how after decades of political exile Prichard was able to redeem himself as an advisor and later as a champion for education reform in his native Kentucky. A compelling morality tale with a quintessentially American setting， Short of the Glory explores an under-recognized facet of mid-20th-century politics and the men who carried it out.
