The speechwriter : a brief education in politics
Swaim, Barton, 1972-2016
Books
'The Speechwriter' offers an intimate and hilarious look inside the spin room of the modern politician: a place where ideals are crushed, English is mangled, people are humiliated, and the opportunity for humour is everywhere. Through his own experience as the speechwriter for a controversial governor, Barton Swaim tells the story of a band of believers who attach themselves to this sort of ambitious narcissist - and what happens when it all comes crashing down.
