Books by/about Republicans, too

January

OK, I’ve been duly chastised for highlighting writings by and about two Democrats, but failing to recognize Republican wordsmiths.

Good point! Publishers have latched onto political voices from many directions and there probably is some good reading out there. I have to say probably because I haven’t read these books by candidates. Might be interesting to check if books sales follow along with votes.

There are indeed books by John McCain, “Faith of My Fathers” and Mike Huckabee, “From Hope to Higher Ground” and one about Mitt Romney, “A Mormon in the White House?” by Hugh Hewitt. I’m sure all of these titles are enlightening and will keep any political reader busy well past Feb. 5 and at least until the two major conventions.

About the author
Barbara NackmanA municipal reporter for The Journal News since 1997, Barbara Livingston Nackman has covered local governments, events and breaking news from many communities. She began her journalism career by writing for bookselling and library publications. As a suburban mother, she made sure her two sons, now 23 and 21, had bookshelves and reading chairs in their rooms and library cards way before they had driver's licenses. Her editors have now found an outlet for all those book-related stories she pitches and her husband hopes she gains an interest in reading historical non-fiction.

Well, maybe if it's about Benjamin Franklin and the Free Library of Philadelphia. READ MORE
