From the Publisher:
The Massachusetts senator who was elected to succeed the late Ted Kennedy recounts the story of his neglect- and abuse-marked childhood, military and career successes and unexpected entry into politics. (biography & autobiography). Simultaneous. |
Annotation:
Republican Scott Brown's fast-paced memoir details his astonishing capture of Ted Kennedy's Senate seat and his even more surprising earlier life. Brown writes about his difficult childhood with an abusive stepfather and an alcoholic mother, the grinding poverty that induced alarming hunger, and his family's frequent moves from one town to another--all of which culminated, somehow, in his becoming a top school basketball player. Brown explores his colorful stint as a model after having been chosen "America's Sexiest Man"--and soon he was featured in a discreetly posed nude centerfold in Cosmopolitan magazine. By then already in law school, Brown used the $1,000 prize money for tuition and subsequently ventured into politics.
