Lawrence O'Donnell promoted his past book 'Playing With Fire', which is now available in paperback, as it details the events of the 1968 Democratic National Convention in Chicago, including the violence and protests.

"

which is now in paperback.

It's wicked timely with the Democratic National Convention approaching in Chicago because it's about the 1968 presidential campaign when the Democratic National Convention was in Chicago.

and it was an absolute disaster in every way, a dramatic and violent disaster which has shaped the workings of the Democratic Party ever since.

You'll be hearing a lot of references to the 1968 Chicago Convention during the upcoming coverage of the Chicago Convention. And this book, Playing With Fire, tells you everything you need to know about what happened in Chicago in 1968, including the fistfights that broke out inside the convention hall with Dan Rather being thrown to the floor while Chicago police were viciously beating protesters outside in what an investigative commission later called a police riot.

The book is Playing With Fire, available in paperback and audiobook, which is great for any of you who actually want to listen to my voice for more than an hour.
