CK - Washington.   Tim Corcoran lädt zu Ehren seines Vaters ein. Zum vom Verfasser David McKean zu signierenden Buch über Tommy the Cork heißt es:

In 1931, a young Rhode Island lawyer ... came to Washington ... He had earned the highest grades at Harvard Law School and possessed a force of personality to match his intellect. A brilliant lawyer, wily political operator, and likable rogue, Corcoran would become the most important and valued strategist in FDR's inner circle. After leaving government, Corcoran would virtually establish modern lobbying and influence peddling as we know it.
Corcoran was the first "super-lobbyist," ...; the first person to fully understand the symbiotic relationship between the executive branch, the Congress, and corporate America. ... Despite his lasting influence his story is little known today.

Und in einer Kritik:

The life and adventures of Tommy the Cork, from serving as a clerk to Oliver Wendell Holmes to helping United Fruit find ways to overthrow the government of Guatamala, make for one of the most intriguing Washington books in years.

Letzteres passt zum Feiertag, dem Veteran's Day am Montag. Ich hoffe, Ersteres bleibt eher in Erinnerung, denn Tim ist mein Partner. Der Spitzname stammt übrigens von Roosevelt.
