Book
The best president the nation never had : a memoir of working with Sam Nunn / Roland McElroy ; foreword by Sam Nunn.
Outside of Houston County, few people knew Sam Nunn's name. His closest friends thought he was crazy to consider mounting a candidacy for the US Senate, and told him so. Nunn, after all, was only in his second two-year term as a state representative and had just turned thirty-three years of age. On the day Nunn announced his intention to enter the Senate race, McElroy sat down with him to discuss next steps. His book chronicles the journey McElroy took with Sam Nunn as he presented a message of common sense conservatism to the voters of Georgia in 1972. Nunn's principled approach to making government work through cooperation and compromise, and his demonstrated mastery of complex issues, placed him among a rare few considered every four years for the highest office in the land.
