The Lyndon Johnson Biography Timeline presents hundreds of key events from his life, making it ideal for students or anyone interested in his life and work. It is perfect for quick reference, for example as an accompaniment to the comprehensive biographies by Robert A Caro or Robert Dallek.
Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908-1973), known as LBJ, was the 36th President of the United States. His presidency was marked by his support for civil rights, aid for education, protection of the environment, development of the US space program and his ‘War on Poverty’ - but it was also dogged by his escalation of the Vietnam War. His rise to power, and the success of his private broadcasting empire, had occasionally been colored by allegations of corruption and even possible vote-rigging, but he is remembered favorably for his liberal stance on domestic issues.
