ABOUT THE BOOK
The Bobby Fulton Story
Bobby Fulton is a boy who grows up in small town America in the 1960s, attends Princeton University, and dares to run for a seat in a New Jersey congressional district.
Against all odds, he enlists the help of a college friend and political pro as they plot a strategy for him to become the youngest person ever to win a national election in the Garden State. Bobby Fulton helps us look into a realistic mirror and back to a much simpler time in our country; a time when youngsters played baseball games in the summertime on makeshift fields; a time when a tiny, working-class town could flourish; a time when a new president made us all feel young and hopeful. But it is also an intimate portrayal of the inner workings of a real political campaign.
