Book Details

Raw, real, and unflinchingly patriotic!

This book is a heartfelt memoir with a bold populist message about finding peace in principles. The author’s principles, which were shaped by his upbringing in poverty. It is a moving tribute to faith, family, and freedom. The book reframes patriotism and beliefs through lived experiences rather than party affiliation. It is a message of hope, the American Dream, and American exceptionalism with a heavy dosage of Constitutional principles interwoven in every chapter! This cultural narrative commentary will have you laughing with the genuine anecdotal stories that led the author to his deeply-rooted Constitutionally-based principles. These poverty-grown principles are hilariously contrasted with unhinged, politically unhappy people that are so numerous in today’s political climate. If you enjoy feel-good stories about realizing the American Dream through grit, then you will love this book!
