My impression was that it was written by her campaign staff or someone in the GOP to present her in the best light to the American people. ( ) First, let me say that this review has nothing to do with politics. With that out of the way let me just say the reason that I didn't like the book was that there was nothing there. I didn't learn anything about Sarah Palin that I hadn't heard from CNN, NPR or Fox News. Her life may indeed be as story book as this telling portrays it, although I doubt it seriously. I don't care how her high school basketball team did. This book was written almost as a fairy tale. This has nothing to do with how I feel about her politics, this was simply a book thrown together in this political season. I am not sure what purpose the author intended to serve, but I didn't get it, and wasted valuable time reading this "pamphlet". I am sure she is a great person, and a real person. Having lived in Alaska and been to Wasilla, I understand her background, however, this book wasn't worth the purchase price or the read to anyone that is at least minimally informed about this election.” sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Distinciones
Sarah Palin, then 39, a hockey mom and former mayor of Wasilla, thought her dream of making a difference in the male-dominated realm of Alaska politics was over in 2004 when she clashed with the state chairman of her Republican party and fell out of favor with Gov. Frank Murkowski over issues related to ethics and openness in government. Yet, the former high school basketball star and one-time TV journalist could not shake the feeling that she was destined for something bigger. Two years later, she became a long-shot candidate for governor, promising openness and a higher ethical standard. Then, fate intervened. Her populist reform message suddenly became front-page news when a major political scandal rocked Alaska politics. Alaskans began listening to her. And they liked what they heard.
