The Governor's Mansion, Paperback / softback Book

The Governor's Mansion Paperback / softback

Part of the The Basque Series series

Paperback / softback

Description

In the dramatic third volume of Robert Laxalt’s trilogy, Leon—the eldest son of immigrant parents—becomes the governor of Nevada during the 1960s.

An able lawyer in his own right, he is a neophyte when it comes to dealing with the political ploys of the entrenched officeholders who dominate in Nevada.

Leon faces the crisis of his budding political career when he is caught between J.

Edgar Hoover’s FBI, bent on cleaning out the Mafia, and his own need to protect the autonomy of his native state.

An unexpected ally appears when the only man rich enough to solve the governor’s dilemma comes to Nevada—reclusive billionaire Howard Hughes.
