All the King's Men - Paperback
by Robert Penn Warren (Author), Noel Polk (Author)
WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE
The fully restored original text of the classic, ever-relevant story of a backcountry lawyer whose idealism is overcome by his lust for power--American literature's definitive political novel.
