• catalog abstract ""Michael V. DiSalle was elected to his first and only term as governor in one of Ohio's most contentious elections, which featured a ferocious battle over the so-called "Right-to-Work" issue, a union-busting constitutional amendment placed on the ballot over the objections of Republican party professionals by fanatic conservative business interests. As a result Democrats won most statewide offices and briefly gained control of the Ohio General Assembly." "During his term, which ran from his inauguration in January 1959 to January 1963, when Republican James Rhodes replaced him, DiSalle championed sorely needed tax increases, but he was less successful in his attempts to pique the conscience of Ohioans on social issues, such as the poor conditions in state mental hospitals and capital punishment. His tours of the state's dismal mental institutions were widely publicized, but the public showed little interest in the details concerning how the state's most-neglected wards were warehoused. His agonizing over death-penalty cases, which DiSalle was legally obligated to review, alienated many in the legal and law enforcement communities." "DiSalle's private life was almost as controversial as his public life. Throughout his term as governor he was dogged by reports of his wife's unhappiness with her role as Ohio's First Lady and later by rumors of his romantic involvement with his personal secretary. His post-gubernatorial life was marred by several unfortunate business ventures, and like his hero, Thomas Jefferson, DiSalle seemed perpetually short of cash after he left office. Despite the controversies that plagued his career, he never stopped living a caring, passionate life."--Jacket.".
