Examines the local ramifications of US federal policy. Three case studies in the rising career of Lyndon B. Johnson show this in action: his experience as a New Dealer directing the National Youth Administration (NYA) in Texas, his role as senate majority leader in breaking the deadlock to secure funds for the Lake Waco dam project, and the effect of his Great Society policies on urban renewal and educational reform among the Mexican American community in Waco.
