Book Synopsis
If Barack Obama had not won in Iowa, most commentators believe that he would not have been able to go on to capture the Democratic nomination for president. This title offers an account of those early weeks of the campaign season: from how the Iowa caucuses work to the lingering effects that the campaigning had on Iowa voters.

Trade Review
"This is an excellent, groundbreaking study of the Iowa Caucus, as well as the presidential nomination system. Why Iowa? is fascinating reading, rich in new insights, and studded with gems unearthed by its powerful analysis.... Well-written and readable, this will be a crucial contribution to election literature, for both students and scholars alike." - Christopher C. Hull, author of Grassroots Rules: How the Iowa Caucus Helps Elect American Presidents"
