The Thunder and the Sunshine by Gary Hart

The Thunder and the Sunshine by Gary Hart

For almost four decades, from his role in the 1972 George McGovern campaign to his years as a visionary senator, from his leadership on national security issues before and after 9/11 to his role in international environmental issues, Gary Hart has been one of America's great public servants. Through times of triumph and disappointment, Hart's dedication to the ideals of the founding fathers, particularly Thomas Jefferson, and his devotion to the American Republic never wavered. In this insightful, humble, and often humorous account of his political and public life, Hart shares the lessons he has learned in the last forty years, imparting to future generations the significance of public service and the role of America in the world. The Thunder and the Sunshine is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand where we have been as a country, and where we are heading in the twenty-first century.

Gary Hart represented the state of Colorado in the US Senate from 1975 until 1987. He is currently scholar in residence at the University of Colorado, co-chair of the USRussia Commission, and vice chair of the Homeland Security Advisory Council.

" The Front Runner , a new film about Gary Hart's 1988 presidential candidacy and collapse comes out on November 6Gary Hart has a few books with us ( Thunder and the Sunshine, Under the Eagle's Wing, and Durango ) but his 2010 biography, Thunder and Sunshine , was mentioned in this Opinion piece. There are many, many reviews getting posted this week so I think people will be looking for his story." The New York Times
