Using archival research as well as oral history, the author argues that the Metro can be understood only in the political context from which it was born: the Great Society liberalism of the Kennedy, Johnson, and Nixon administrations. He includes general planning, routes, station architecture, funding decisions, land-use impacts, and more.
