PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE AND U.S. SENATOR BERNIE SANDERS TO PUBLISH NEW BOOK OUR REVOLUTION: A FUTURE TO BELIEVE IN Published by Thomas Dunne Books/St. Martin’s Press on November 15, 2016
NEW YORK, JULY 14, 2016 – It was announced today that U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders will publish a new book entitled OUR REVOLUTION: A Future to Believe In with the Thomas Dunne Books imprint of St. Martin’s Press on November 15, 2016. World publishing rights were acquired by Thomas Dunne, with Peter Joseph editing, from Washington D.C. literary agent and attorney Ronald Goldfarb, who represented the author. The book will be available in hardcover, ebook, and audio.
Throughout the Presidential campaign, Bernie Sanders galvanized voters with his progressive platform and vision for America. In the book, Sanders shares experiences from the campaign trail and outlines his ideas for continuing a political revolution to fight for a progressive economic, environmental, racial and social justice agenda that creates jobs, raises wages, protects the environment and provides health care for all.
Publisher Thomas Dunne commented: “Bernie Sanders quickly became the leader of the progressive movement within the Democratic Party. Garnering over thirteen million votes, winning twenty-three primaries and caucuses, and receiving more than seven million individual donations to his cause, he energized the party as he fought for the average American with unrelenting energy and passion. OUR REVOLUTION will be an inside account of this extraordinary campaign, and will also provide a blueprint for future political action. Its message: the fight has just begun.
“To say we are excited is an understatement. Bernie’s ideas and plan for action may well change the lives of millions of people for the better. It is an honor to be involved with the book.”
Bernie Sanders was a Democratic candidate for President of the United States. He is serving his second term in the U.S. Senate after winning re-election in 2012 with 71 percent of the vote. Sanders previously served as mayor of Vermont’s largest city for eight years before defeating an incumbent Republican to be the sole congressperson for the state in the U.S. House of Representatives. He lives in Burlington, Vermont with his wife Jane and has four children and seven grandchildren.
