William Donald Schaefer
a political biography
by C. Fraser Smith
"Baltimore's "Do It Now" mayor, two-term Maryland governor, and recently elected comptroller of the treasury, William Donald Schaefer may be the most colorful character ever to play on the Free State's political stage - though competition for the honor is intense.
In this readable account, Fraser Smith explores the formative influences, backroom deals, personal relationships, quirky Baltimorisms, vicious fights, civic pride, splashes in the National Aquarium seal pool, victories, defeats, draws - everything that makes Schaefer's career colorful and that helps us to understand the man himself."--BOOK JACKET.
"William Donald Schaefer: A Political Biography will fascinate Maryland voters, appeal to students of twentieth-century America, and engage anyone who loves a good story well told."--BOOK JACKET.
