The Education of an Idealist
BOOKSELLING IRELAND NON-FICTION BOOK OF THE YEAR 2019 – Shortlisted
Samantha Power’s memoir tells the story of her journey from Irish immigrant to correspondent in war-torn Bosnia to the White House, where she worked with Barack Obama and became the youngest ever US Ambassador to the United Nations. Evocatively written and galvanising, this is the unforgettable account of the world-changing power of idealism – and of one person’s fierce determination to make a difference.
