Author Description

"Every Monday morning, thousands of subscribers to the Washington Post turn directly to Jonathan Yardley's weekly column, where they are always rewarded by the Pulitzer Prize-winning critic's observations about American life. Monday Morning Quarterback contains Yardley's best essays from the 1990s. But be warned. Nothing is sacred to Yardley. Yardley is always provocative, his insights always uncompromising, and his judgments always controversial. In the tradition of America's best journalists and social critics, Yardley's subjects are vast - politics, culture, baseball, literature, publishing, the media, current intellectual fashions - but his opinions are enduring. Prepare yourself for an eye-opening, original, and occasionally hilarious journey through America as Yardley sees it."--BOOK JACKET.
