Self-Destruction: The rise, fall, and redemption of U.S. Senator Daniel B. Brewster

A new biography by author John W. Frece

“This beautifully written and carefully researched biography portrays the fascinating life of Daniel B. Brewster, from his courageous fighting in the South Pacific, where he was wounded seven times but never relinquished command, to his rise in national politics, to a downward spiral that nearly destroyed him, followed by an amazing comeback.”

“Senator Daniel Brewster became caught in the vortex of American politics of the 1960s: the New Frontier, Great Society, Vietnam War, Civil Rights Movement, and conservative reaction. How he coped with these challenges, personally and politically, and the price he paid, makes a powerful story.”

– Ambassador Tyler Abell, President Johnson's Advisor and Chief of Protocol

– Donald A. Ritchie, U.S. Senate Historian Emeritus
