American Underdog

U.S. Congressman David Brat's odds-defying win against Eric Cantor--a triumph of a modest $200000 campaign fund against a $5 million war chest--immediately brought David Brat heretofore a liberal arts college economics professor into the political limelight. Now in his first book AMERICAN UNDERDOG Brat examines how we brought down the status quo by tapping into moral and economic lessons as old as our civilization and discusses how Washington can learn from history instead of ignoring it. A fighter for children he illuminates how our current fiscal policies are selling their future and outlines new ways to move forward with a conservative agenda that provides fairer treatment for all.>
