From growing up in his familys two-bedroom home in Cincinnati to serving three terms as speaker of the

will shed light on the inner-workings of U.S. government and the challenging task of fighting for ones
beliefs.
Im deeply excited to share my story with readers in such an honest way, says Boehner. This book has
allowed me to both celebrate my time in office, as well as look back with a critical eye.
Boehners memoir reminds us of the importance of the American dream in todays world. The book is
refreshing, smart, and incredibly revealing of a mans journey to Washington, says Alice Mayhew, vice
president and editorial director of Simon & Schuster.
