The candid memoir of one of the most effective,
controversial figures in modern politics Very few people are on the fence about Tom DeLay, who was
nicknamed "the Hammer" for his hard-charging,
take-no-prisoners style of leadership. Liberals despise him,
but for conservatives he’s a hero—one of the architects of
the 1994 Republican revolution. For twelve years afterward,
he was the driving force of the Republican majority in the
House of Representatives. In this eagerly awaited memoir, DeLay will share fascinating
stories from his entire career, starting with his early,
raucous days in Texas; his personal conversion to Christ and
how that changed his personal and political life; his work
with other rebels to sow the seeds of the shocking 1994
takeover; and his ascension to the top leadership in the
House. He offers a behind-the-scenes view of the most
talked-about stories of the past decade, involving George W.
Bush, Bill Clinton, Newt Gingrich, and many others. DeLay will also discuss his victories against the odds with
the slimmest of margins; his passionate dedication to abused
and neglected children; and his battle to fend off a
ten-year barrage of malicious and frivolous allegations of
wrongdoing, which ultimately led to his decision to resign
from Congress. Perhaps most importantly, DeLay will unveil a blueprint
agenda for the country’s next group of elected leaders, and
show conservatives how to make it a reality.
