997 L.B.J.
First viewed : 14 September 1991
This was an excellent four part biography of the famously flawed U.S. President made by the P.B.S. company and broadcast on BBC Two. It charted his rise, through his notoriously dodgy election to the U.S. Senate, his leadership of the Senate and Vice-presidency under Kennedy to becoming president in the worst possible circumstances. It then went on to his visions of a Great Society torpedoed by the war in Vietnam. Contributors included his widow Lady Bird and friend ,Governor John Connally.
