Trust - America's Best Chance

Zusatztext Personal, beguiling and quite moving as he talks about coming out and getting married... The story is told with brisk engagement. It is difficult not to like him ...When Obama wrote his memoir, the idea that the nation would soon put an African-American in the White House seemed beyond the realm of the possible. After reading this memoir written 25 years later, the notion that Buttigieg might be the nation's first openly gay president doesn't feel quite as far-fetched.

A Rhodes scholar and U.S. Navy veteran, Buttigieg, whose first book, Shortest Way Home, became a New York Times best-seller, was educated at Harvard and Oxford. He currently serves as the U.S. Secretary of Transportation, based in Washington, D.C. He lives with his husband, Chasten Buttigieg, and their two dogs. Klappentext Pete Buttigieg demonstrates how a breakdown of trust has been central to our nation's current predicament-and how our future depends on finding ways to restore confidence in the American project, and in each other. Zusammenfassung Pete Buttigieg demonstrates how a breakdown of trust has been central to our nation's current predicament-and how our future depends on finding ways to restore confidence in the American project, and in each other.
