"After eighty years of living in Washington, DC, if I've learned one thing, it's that elected officials are supposed to be there as servants of the public interest, not of their self-interest, or of partisan ideology."
Starting with Rep. John Dingell's days as a House page boy, "The Dean" gives an inside look at how the U.S. government really works - exclusive access directly from the man who spent decades in Washington DC. Dingell's dedication to his country jumps off the pages.
Holding the records for longest-ever serving congressman in American history and the longest-serving Dean of the House, Dingell has so much knowledge to share, while always maintaining his personality. He was front row for so many important moments in U.S. history - including FDR's "a date which will live in infamy" speech, the passing of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the signing of the Affordable Care Act - and he gives details on it all. Dingell not only recounts these times, but also shares takeaways on how the US government should be serving its people.
And as Dingell succeeded his father for his congressional seat, "The Dean" also covers his father's time in office - a nice tribute.
RIP, Mr. Dingell. The country could really use your wisdom right now.
(Also, my edition of "The Dean" misspells Dingell's name on the spine...)
