<p>My First Days in the White House is Louisiana Senator Huey Long’s short fiction novel describing the Presidential term he never had a chance to serve. Originally published in 1935, just days after his death and on the eve of the 1936 Presidential election in which he expected to be a candidate, the book presents a dramatic vision of how the Kingfish hoped to govern as President: his appointment of a bipartisan Cabinet with former Presidents Franklin D. Roosevelt as Secretary of the Navy and Herbert Hoover as Secretary of Commerce, his appointment of the Mayo brothers (of the famous Mayo Clinic) to over see the insititution of universal health care for all citizens, greatly expanding the Federal role in eduction to offer each qualified citizen a chance to go to college, revising the Federal Reserve Banking system to place banks under voter control and his battle with the barons of Wall Street and the Governor of a Northeastern state over his Share The Wealth tax policy which would decentralize the nations wealth. This is a new limited re-issue of the scarce novel by Long, with an added brief biographical note on the author and a discussion of the history of the books original publication in 1935.</p>
