Praise for Pete Buttigieg’s Shortest Way Home:

“The best American political autobiography since Barack Obama’s Dreams from My Father.” —Charles Kaiser, Guardian

“Buttigieg’s stirring, honest, and often beautiful book is . . . an argument for what it means to answer a calling, and why it’s important to ask, again and again, ‘what each of us owes to the country.’” —Jill Lepore, The New Yorker

“Combining candor and compassion with a brilliant understanding of how government can be more effective. . . [Pete Buttigieg’s] work is an important entry in the American political tradition for the twenty-first century.” —Walter Isaacson
