    1960: LBJ vs. JFK vs. Nixon: The Epic Campaign that Forged Three Presidencies “1960 aims to take us deeper into the campaign than Theodore White’s famous The Making of the President, 1960. And it does.”—Chicago Sun-Times

    This is award-winning historian David Pietrusza’s hard-edged account of the 1960 presidential campaign, the election that ultimately gave America “Camelot” and its tragic aftermath. It is the story of the bare-knuckle politics of the primaries; the party conventions’ backroom dealings; the unprecedented television debates; the hot-button issues of race, religion, and foreign policy—and, at the center of it all, three future presidents: Lyndon Johnson, John F. Kennedy, and Richard Nixon.

    The Locker Room (The Brentwood Baseball Series) Have you heard the rumor around campus about the locker room?

    Translation: baseball players are stupidly superstitious and believe the locker room has magical powers.

    But not all baseball players are superstitious, me included.

    So when the girl I’ve fallen for brushes me off, I start to question if I need to switch my way of thinking. Maybe it’s time I finally hand out a coveted invitation to the locker room.

    The only question is, will she accept?
