Campaign-related spending during the 1987-1988 US election cycle topped all previous records, not only in amount, but also in ingenuity. This book tracks the "money path" through campaign elections, highlighting the role of soft money, independent expenditures, communication costs and Congressional campaign finance reform legislation along the way. The book is relevant to a wide variety of American government courses, including campaigns and elections, parties and public opinion.
