Description
'Bernie Sanders has changed US politics forever' Owen Jones
The Sunday Times bestseller
Bernie Sanders is one of the most influential voices in a global movement fighting injustice. He has dominated two Democratic primary races, and changed the political conversation around the world. But he began as an unknown underdog. So how did he get here?
In this remarkable memoir, Sanders shows how a young man from Brooklyn, via Civil Rights demonstrations and a lifetime of independent politics, became one of the most radical voices in America. He provides a unique insight into the campaign that galvanized a movement, and shares experiences from the campaign trail as well as the ideas and strategies that shaped it. And, drawing on decades of experience as an activist and public servant, he outlines his vision for continuing this revolution.

Reviews / Votes
Praise for Bernie Sanders:'Gives us a glimpse of what politics could be like' -- Yanis Varoufakis A decent, honest person. It's pretty unusual in the political system. -- Noam Chomsky Sanders' success today shows that much of America is tired of rising inequality and these so-called political changes, and intends to revive both a progressive agenda and the American tradition of egalitarianism. -- Thomas Piketty Only Bernie Sanders can break the power of capitalism -- Paul Mason
