Beskrivelse
Conversations with Pete Cenarrusa represents an up-to-date account of the most striking aspects of Contemporary Basque Politics, from the bombing of Gernika to the last elections in 2009. While being an overview, the book provides many interesting details and little known facts of the American perspective regarding the Basque political issue and its impact in Idaho, land of grace and hope for thousands of Basque immigrants during the nineteenth and the twentieth centuries. The present second edition has more than one hundred pages of new content and substantial enhancements to the original edition of the book in 2009. Pete T. Cenarrusa has served for fifty-two years in the State of Idaho, nine terms at the House of Representatives (1950-1967), in 1963, 1965 and 1967 as a Speaker of the House, and six terms as Secretary of State (1967-2002) for the Republican Party. Gov. C. L. "Butch" Otter calls Cenarrusa "my kind of guy. I'm proud to say that it doesn't get any more basic Idaho than Pete and Freda." Xabier Irujo, professor at the University of Nevada, Reno, is author of several books on history of the Basque Country and Basque Politics.
