. . "Bob Beckel has been branded with many labels. Most have nothing to do with the character of the man. I have known Bob for more than 20 years. I have traveled with him, shared meals with him, and listened to him share deeply personal things, which only happens when one is a trusted friend.
"The real Bob is the one who rescues drunks and gets them into treatment programs, who talks about and loves his children, who cares deeply for the poor and underprivileged, and who is able to see flaws in his own party, as well as in the other party.
"In other words, he is an honest “liberal,” in the classical sense of that word and not the way it is used today.
"In his remarkable book, Bob reveals some of his failings, challenges, and temptations, not to glorify them, but to give the reader a sense of the magnitude of the grace of God, who rescued him in his darkest hour. It is a thrilling story that will give you an entirely different sense of the man, beyond the silliness of the political world and media in which we both work and live."
