Fenno traveled with ten U.S. senators as they campaigned in their home states - using what he calls the "drop in/drop out, tag along/hang around" method of research - to present a developmental picture of their activities. His focus here is on three such activities: pursuing a career, campaigning for office, & building constituency connections. Taken together, the three constitute the political underpinnings of representative democracy. In studying the candidates' varied careers, campaigns, & connections - & allowing us to hear them reflect on these experiences - Fenno offers rare insights into campaigns & elections, insights very different from conventional ones that concentrate on the behavior of voters. "[A] seminal volume on the forging of ties between legislators & constituents."--POLITICAL SCIENCE QUARTERLY. "This is an exceptionally well-written book from an exceptionally perceptive scholar that should be read by anyone who hopes to comprehend the beauty & complexity that is American democracy."--LIBRARY JOURNAL. "Fenno's focus on individual details restores a humanity to the Senate in an era of public cynicism about public institutions."--PUBLISHERS WEEKLY. VOLUME 6 IN THE JULIAN J. ROTHBAUM DISTINGUISHED LECTURE SERIES. RICHARD F. FENNO, JR., is distinguished University Professor of Political Science at the University of Rochester. His twelve previous books on the Congress & other political subjects include the award-winning Home Style: House Members in Their Districts, for which this book is a long-awaited sequel.;
