Publisher Description
“It’s one of the best books on politics of any kind I’ve read. For entertainment value, I put it up there with Catch 22.” —The Financial Times
“It transports you to a parallel universe in which everything in the National Enquirer is true….More interesting is what we learn about the candidates themselves: their frailties, egos and almost super-human stamina.” —The Financial Times
“I can’t put down this book!” —Stephen Colbert
Game Change is the New York Times bestselling story of the 2008 presidential election, by John Heilemann and Mark Halperin, two of the best political reporters in the country. In the spirit of Richard Ben Cramer’s What It Takes and Theodore H. White’s The Making of the President 1960, this classic campaign trail book tells the defining story of a new era in American politics, going deeper behind the scenes of the Obama/Biden and McCain/Palin campaigns than any other account of the historic 2008 election.

“I am a political junkie. During the 2008 race I was glued to everything newsie. This book was entirely familiar to me, and yet it gave a behind the scenes peek into what was NOT in the story. Easy to read and interesting to the end. Also, don’t be fooled by the movie. The book is mainly about the Democratic race for the nomination. Very little is about McCain/Palin.”
