Critic reviews

"At a moment when the news is always full of chaos and people are questioning if work in politics is a noble profession, Climbing the Hill is a valuable guidebook for those whose hearts and minds are in the right place and who want to serve." (Kristen Soltis Anderson, Republican pollster and author of The Selfie Vote)

“People come to Capitol Hill to make a difference and improve the lives of the American people. This book is a great blueprint on how anyone, regardless of their background, can make a difference in politics.” (Nancy Pelosi, US House Democratic leader)

Climbing the Hill is a wonderful read for any young person looking to become more involved in public service. Jaime and Amos provide a guide for political involvement and government service for the next generation. Their experiences - and their friendship - show that bipartisanship is alive and well. We can accomplish great things by working together.” (Lisa Murkowski, US senator)
