"Outside In: A Political Memoir" by Libby Davies is a unique and powerful book that explores the intersection of politics and personal experience. Through a personal narrative, Davies shares her experiences as she rose through the ranks of the US government from an underling to a member of the executive branch.
Davies' journey begins in a small town in Western Pennsylvania that provides the perfect backdrop for her coming of age story. As a child growing up in this community, she witnessed the impact that the Vietnam War had on her community and the country at large. Davies recounts her experiences working for a congressman, during her time as a staffer for Vice President Dan Quayle, and finally serving as an assistant US Secretary of Commerce.
The memoir also examines the many facets of the American political system, including the issues, institutions, people and challenges that come with being involved in Washington. While Davies never fails to entertain her readers with her humorous anecdotes, the book remains a passionate and deep exploration of the power and possibilities of the system within which we operate.
With a strong sense of history, politics, and personal commitment, "Outside In" is a must-read for anyone interested in the inner workings of power, the meaning of democracy, and the need for responsible and ethical leadership. This is a book that both challenges and inspires, offering a rare glimpse into the lives and memories of those who have marched into history.
