Although Tennessee has a rich history of political scandals, dating back to the founding of the state, the last fifty years have been a confusing, confounding, and sometimes ludicrous period of ne'er-do-welling. Welcome to Capitol Hill is a guide to the state's modern history of corruption. From Governor Ray Blanton's pardon scandals to the FBI investigation that started with now-Lieutenant Governor Randy McNally wearing a wire in the late 1980s to the sexual misconduct that plagues Tennessee politics, this book chronicles it all. Veteran political reporters Joel Ebert and Erik Schelzig draw from interviews with primary and secondary sources, archival documents, and never-before-seen federal investigative files to provide readers with a handy resource to the wrongdoings of our elected officials.
