Mitt Romney: The Man, His Values and His Vision
978-1-60065-109-0 • Mapletree Publishing • Lisa R. Turner, Kimberly Field • Paperback • 144pp • Out of PrintOriginally published by Mapletree Publishing Company

There aren't too many people who have earned simultaneous Juris Doctor and MBA degrees from Harvard. Mitt Romney is one of them. But he has always liked the toughest challenges. He first made a name for himself as the brilliant turnaround miracle worker from Bain Capital. And he's the one who turned the debt-ridden, scandal-plagued 2002 Olympics into a marvelous success.

Now he is campaigning to be our next president. He is a staunch advocate of free market economics and a devoted husband and father who believes in traditional values. Can he win? Will voters give him the chance to apply his management proficiency to our federal government?

Authors Lisa Ray Turner and Kimberly Field examine Mitt Romney as a man of incredible ability and driving energy. They examine his history, his policies, his alleged flip-flopping, and particularly the controversy surrounding his religion. As a team, they offer a unique perspective on this last issue: Lisa is LDS (Mormon), and Kim is an evangelical Christian. You'll find their insights fascinating.

Review
Moms want to be informed, but don't have a lot of time to dedicate to it. I found this book perfect for that….

The length of this book and the quality of what was covered is ideal for giving the busy reader a thorough overview of Mitt Romney and his Presidential bid. I found it straightforward and honest.

As a Democrat, I haven't made up my mind yet about the 2008 election - but I do think it's time people got over their prejudices and found out who Mitt Romney really is. Turner and Field's book deals candidly with all the tough questions, and gives you full information so you can make up your own mind. That's something we aren't getting from the national media.

Turner and Field have written an easy-to-read and thorough guide to the presidential candidate who saved the Olympics and could well do the same for the country. The authors detail Mitt Romney's tremendous leadership ability with entertaining anecdotes and well-researched narrative. This book gets a gold medal!
