Overall winner: Tales of the State: Narrative in Contemporary U.S. Politics and Public Policy

Key Differences

Tales of the State (Sanford Schram) focuses explicitly on narrative analysis in U.S. politics and public policy and has a single but perfect review; Power and Personality (Harold D. Lasswell) is positioned in general political-science and elections, has two perfect reviews, and is in a lower price tier. Choose Schram if you need a focused academic treatment of policy narratives; choose Lasswell if you prefer a classic political-science angle at a more affordable price point with slightly more review data
