From the then-senator's early days in Congress to his years in the Oval Office, she made Hope and Change happen through blood, sweat, tears, and lots of briefing binders.

"In From the Ground Up, Schultz looks for answers in two interwoven narratives. One story shows how his conflicted boyhood-including experiences he has never before revealed-motivated Schultz to become the first in his family to graduate from college, then to build the kind of company his father, a working-class laborer, never had a chance to work for: a business that tries to balance profit and human dignity."--Amazon.com.

"In 2016, the fate of Paramount--the entertainment conglomerate that includes Viacom, CBS, and Simon & Schuster--hung precariously in the balance. Its founder and head, ninety-three-year-old Sumner M.
