Newman’s Latest Collection of Political Books.

It’s been quite a wild ride on the American political scene.  Our President has been under great scrutiny, the Team Party has emerged with a major national presence, and the Conservatives are wondering who may be their next great hope.  If you are a reader of political books, we are more than sure you have heard from a number of recent Newman clients.

Revival

Revival

One of the most intertesting titles comes from award-winning journalist and political analyst for MSNBC television, Richard Wolffe.  The book, entitled REVIVAL is the dramatic inside story of the defining period of the Obama White House. It is an epic tale that follows the president and his inner circle from the crisis of defeat to historic success.  Wolffe draws on unrivaled access to the West Wing to write a natural sequel to his critically acclaimed book, RENEGADE, about the president and his campaign. Starting at the first anniversary of the inauguration, Wolffe paints a portrait of a White House at work under exceptional strain across a sweeping set of challenges: from health care reform to a struggling economy, from two wars to terrorism.

Game Change

Game Change

If you’ve been listening or watching, we are sure you have heard from best-selling authors John Heilemann and Mark Halperin.  Their book, GAME CHANGE, was a runaway bestseller in hardcover and the paperback has done quite well, especially with the new Afterword.  In 2008 , the presidential election became blockbuster entertainment. Everyone was watching as the race for the White House unfolded like something from the realm of fiction. The meteoric rise and historic triumph of Barack Obama. The shocking fall of the House of Clinton—and the improbable resurrection of Hillary as Obama’s partner and America’s face to the world. The mercurial performance of John McCain and the mesmerizing emergence of Sarah Palin. But despite the wall-to-wall media coverage of this spellbinding drama, remarkably little of the real story behind the headlines had been told—until now.  In GAME CHANGE, John Heilemann and Mark Halperin pull back the curtains on the Obama, Clinton, McCain, and Palin campaigns. Based on hundreds of interviews with the people who lived thestory, Game Change is a reportorial tour de force that reads like a fast-paced novel.

The Obama Identity

The Obama Identity

If you are interested in taking a light-hearted break from seriousness of politics, why not check out THE OBAMA IDENTITY: A Novel (Or Is It?).  Written by seven-time NY Times best selling author Ed Klein and former NY Congressman John LeBoutiellier, this book takes a satirical look at our current President and makes sure that no parties go unscathed!  If you like the following description, this is definitely a book for you:

WASHINGTON, D.C.-In the summer of 2004, CIA agent Theodore J. Higginbothem III was summoned by his boss to a hush-hush meeting in the basement of the National Museum of Health. “Higgy,” his boss whispered in his ear, “the CIA has a top-secret, off-the-books domestic spying operation in which we keep tabs on our most ambitious presidential hopefuls. I want you to do a complete workup on Barack Hussein Obama. Where was he born? Is he a Muslim? Is he a socialist? Who is behind him? And what is Obama’s real agenda.” THE OBAMA IDENTITY follows Higgy and his team as they travel all over the world-from Chicago to Mombasa to Honolulu to Jakarta and St. Petersburg, Russia-and encounter Birthers and Bushes, Katie Couric and Muslim clerics. Along their hilarious and madcap journey, Higgy and his crack operatives discover startling secrets about the 44th president of the United States-a man some call “The Chosen One” and others refer to as ” an Obamanation.” Among the many startling revelations in THE OBAMA IDENTITY:

  • What Obama’s Kenyan grandmother says about his birthplace
  • How a Muslim imam taught young Obama to apologize for America and bow to foreigners
  • How the Reverend Jeremiah Wright taught Obama to use the TelePromTer
  • What happened to the videotapes showing Obama high-fiving the Reverend Wright after one of his anti-American sermons
  • How financier George Soros brought about the collapse of the American economy to help elect Obama
  • Why Obama blames everything on George W. Bush except Katie Couric’s dismal ratings
  • How the Russians blackmailed Obama into canceling America’s anti-missile systems in Eastern Europe
  • Who came up with the idea of carving Obama’s face on Mount Rushmore right next to Abe Lincoln’s?
