Promises to Keep
Biden Joe
President Joe Biden tells the story of his
extraordinary life and career prior to his emergence as Barack Obama's beloved,
influential vice president.
'I remain captivated by the possibilities of
politics and public service. In fact, I believe that my chosen profession is a
noble calling.' - Joe Biden
Joe Biden has both witnessed and participated
in a momentous epoch of American history. In Promises to Keep, he reveals what
these experiences taught him about himself, his colleagues, and the
institutions of government.
With his customary honesty and wit, Biden
movingly and eloquently recounts growing up in a staunchly Catholic
multigenerational household in Scranton, Pennsylvania, and Wilmington,
Delaware; overcoming personal tragedy, life-threatening illness, and career
setbacks; his relationships with presidents, world leaders, and lawmakers on
both sides of the aisle; and his leadership of powerful Senate committees.
Through these and other recollections, Biden
shows us how the guiding principles he learned early in life - to work to make
people's lives better; to honour family and faith; to value persistence,
candour, and honesty - are the foundation on which he has based his life's work
as husband, father, and public servant.
Promises to Keep is an intimate series of
reflections from a politician who surmounted numerous challenges to become one
of America's most effective leaders and who refuses to be cynical about
politics. It is also a stirring testament to the promise of the United States.
