"Blunt, honest, hard-hitting... a great read about a
campaign that transformed American politics." Steve Grossman, chairman, Dean campaign and
former chairman, Democratic National Committee.
"A most engaging, candid, and well-written study of the
hell-for-leather primary campaign of Dr. Howard Dean." Howard Frank Mosher, author of "Stranger in the
Kingdom" and "Waiting for Teddy Williams".
"Burning at the Grassroots" starts with the phrase "Lincoln must come again." At
the end of the footnotes, the book says that Lincoln may have come again
from Illinois, as Barack Obama.
The book's author Dana Dunnan embarks on this book tour in support of the
candidacy for US Senate of Barack Obama. Locations and times will be added below
