Synopsis

Small town hockey player and Governor Palin's almost son-in-law, Levi Johnston is only seventeen when Palin becomes the vice-presidential nominee. His dreams of either being a professional hockey player or a back-country guide are permanently derailed when his high school romance becomes the highlight of the 2008 Republican National Convention.

Bullied, lied about, and outspent in the courts when he attempts to bond with his new son, this book is Johnston's graceful answer to the woman who him made the most hated man in Alaska. With a mature perspective and complete frankness, he is ready to bare all in order to clear his name and set the record straight for his son. The result is a humorous, poignant book about a widely misunderstood young man who was thrust into the spotlight and forced to grow up too soon.

About the Author:

Levi Johnston was born in a tiny Alaskan town perched on the edge of untamed wilderness. Johnston, twenty-one, has been an outdoorsman since he was big enough to hold a fishing rod and aim a rifle. He has worked as an electrician’s apprentice and roustabout in Port Valdez and on Alaska’s North Slope. After his appearance as an honorary Palin family member at the 2008 Republican National Convention, Johnston modeled for Playgirl and was profiled in GQ, Vanity Fair, and New York Magazine and a guest on Today, The Last Word with Lawrence O'Donnell, and Larry King Live. He is the father of a young son, Tripp, and lives in his hometown of Wasilla.
