This extraordinary book, the personal and political manifesto of America’s new Speaker of the House, has ignited a firestorm of controversy, sparking national debate and generating headlines across the country. After 17 years in Congress, Newt Gingrich's moment has arrived; since becoming Speaker, he has graced the covers of "Time" and "Newsweek." A nation in search of renewal is eager to hear his message: our institutions can be saved from decay through personal motivation and faith. This wave of interest began with the American people, who reshaped the U.S. House of Representatives in the November 1994 election, delivering a clear message to the Federal government and empowering the first Republican-dominated Congress in 40 years. The book draws on Gingrich's command of American history to illustrate how we can renew our civilization culturally, educationally, economically, and politically. This renewal hinges on recovering five key elements largely lost from national life: personal strength, entrepreneurial free enterprise, the spirit of invention and discovery, commitment to quality, and the lessons of history. Beyond its political significance, the book is richly personal and anecdotal, revealing the man behind the public persona and showcasing his connection to his time and generation.
