A Fighting Chance
An unlikely political star tells the inspiring story of the two-decade journey that taught her how Washington really works—and really doesn't. At age 62, she decided to run for elective office and won the most competitive—and watched—Senate race in the country. In this passionate, funny, rabble-rousing book, Warren shows why she has chosen to fight tooth and nail for the middle class—and why she has become a hero to all those who believe that America's government can and must do better for working families.
“Revealing...Warren's book describes the troubling patterns and practices of high-level Washington.”
― Gretchen Morgenson, The New York Times
"Moving...Ultimately, the book's message is that one person can make a difference... After reading this book, it is comforting to know that Elizabeth Warren, with her passion, anger, and bluntness, will not be silenced."
“[Warren's] storytelling is well-paced and engaging...She mixes policy points with rich behind-the-scenes anecdotes.”
― The Boston Globe
“Intelligent and informative...[Warren is] good, the plainspoken company who makes you feel smarter for having spent such an easy time with her... Her new book, which is a loving look at her family as well as her country, will only broaden her base.”
― Entertainment Weekly
“The Wall Street watchdog and U.S. senator have produced a readable and sometimes infuriating explanation of the biggest financial crisis of our time.”
― People
“[Warren] has a compelling story to tell... She is also entertaining about professional politics.”
“Warren has written a good book... Frank and quite strong.”
