A Witness to History: George H. Mahon, West Texas CongressmanThis is the story of George H. Mahon, a man who went to Congress in 1935, when the House Committee on Appropriations still allocated a small amount of money to buy military horses. Forty four years later, when Mahon retired as Chairman of that same committee, the committee was debating funds to purchase a bomber capable of traveling at 2,000 miles an hour. With a career spanning nearly a half century spanning almost the entire Cold War Mahon grew from
This is the story of George H. Mahon, a man who went to Congress in 1935, when the House Committee on Appropriations still allocated a small amount of money to buy military horses. Forty-four years later, when Mahon retired as Chairman of that same committee, the committee was debating funds to purchase a bomber capable of traveling at 2,000 miles an hour. With a career spanning nearly a half century--spanning almost the entire Cold War--Mahon grew from a West Texas country lawyer to one of the most powerful men in the US House of Representatives, serving twenty-two consecutive terms from 1935-1978. During his time in Congress, Mahon worked easily with the giants of government, enjoying the friendship and confidence of seven of the eight presidents with whom he served. He worked just as comfortably with his constituents in the Nineteenth Congressional District of Texas. Mahon served on several Congressional committees, but it is through his service on the House Appropriations Committee and the Subcommittee on Defense Appropriations that he had the greatest national impact. He often bragged that under his leadership the Subcommittee on Defense Appropriations was the most non-partisan committee in Congress. Mahon led the subcommittee with a strong but gentle hand that earned him the respect of all who served with him.Binding Type: Hardcover

It Looks Nice and It Works
Color: 1 Tier-Black
I like it. It is too long for my sink area, but it still works. Next to my sink is a dish rack.
One half of the caddy fits perfectly behind it, holding a 16oz bottle of dish soap and
a 16oz bottle of multi-surface cleaner. The part of the caddy that fits on my sink ledge
holds a sponge, scrubber and scouring pad, The caddy works great at keeping the ledge
dry. It is a very nice, well-designed item. I recommend this caddy it's keeps everything
organized and dry.

Good for organization, looks neat!
Color: 2 Tier-Black
I've had this for almost a year now and expect to have it for a few more; seems very durable. The drain board thingy requires consistent cleaning every few days, but its done in less than two minutes. I usually wash the entire thing every two weeks to keep it shiny as well. I am seeing a little bit of rust, but it's not too much and it's not noticeable if you don't look for it. It's great for organization and was easy to assemble. A very sturdy and well-sized product.

Serves purpose and holds what it was intended to
Color: 2 Tier-Black, Color: 2 Tier-Black
I like it. Keeps things organized and handy in small kitchen. The attachable bin holding my brushes I put on outside of unit not inside as company pics show it. That bin only has one clip to hold it in place. This makes it a little wobbly if you want to place it on the outside like I did. I used 2 trash bag twisties to help tighten it into place. Doing this made it no longer lose and the inside area space larger to hold both of my soaps. Fits everything I need it to. I appreciated the little lever on bottom that moves for water drainage. My sink design doesn’t work for the other drainage design I found these to have online.

My new kitchen favorite!!! Looks just like picture!
Color: 2 Tier-Black
Love this, looks just like picture. Fits perfect by my sink and the drain spout positions right into sink. Holds quite a few things. A kitchen must have! Well made, stays put, easy to rinse when needed and my room mate loved it too!

Great sink organizer
Color: 1 Tier-Black, Color: 1 Tier-Black
I've been searching seems like forever for something to make my kitchen sink look more organized and this caddy solves my problem!! I found a different use for the basket that holds a scrub brush since I don't use one of those. Nice design that fits my kitchen objects and no worries about removing a tray to empty water out. I used the adhesive holder to attach it to the wall behind the sink but one corner is peeling off, causing the basket to hand on that side. :( It would have been nice to have a replacement for that, but overall I'm pretty impressed with this thing!!
