Telling overheard stories of famous and ordinary people illuminate the human experience in this memoir full of humorous anecdotes that will make you go aha…and really? Ken Ashworth has worked in many fields throughout his lifetime, from politics to education to public service. Here he shares the history that doesn’t get included in the textbooks—including observations he’s written down from meeting or being in the presence of people like Lyndon and Lady Bird Johnson, George H. W. Bush, George W. Bush, Margaret Thatcher, and university presidents, actors, and other celebrities. By sharing his extensive “fly-on-the-wall” notes, Ashworth reveals how government runs behind the scenes in ways you wouldn’t believe. Now he has captured them all for readers’ shock, amazement, and maybe even disdain. These eclectic vignettes reveal a different side to what you think you know about people and highlight the fact that even in the darkest moments, sometimes the only thing to do is laugh.
