Sarah: How a Hockey Mom Turned

the Political Establishment Upside-

Down by Kaylene Johnson









A True Patriot





In-Sarah: How a Hockey Mom Turned the Political Establishment Upside-

Down, the first biography released of Governor Palin, author Kaylene

Johnson draws upon personal interviews with Palin, her family, and other

highly placed sources to explore Palins family life, her upbringing in a

devout Christian home, her political rise, and how she went from being a

long-shot candidate to--potentially--one of the worlds most powerful

women and political figures. The book features dozens of family and

political photos and contains source notes. Tyndale will also provide a free

online discussion guide designed to engage readers on the subject of faith

and politics: www.FaithandPoliticsDiscussionGuide.com.

makes her home on a small farm outside Wasilla. Her articles have

appeared in Alaskan Wilderness Discovery Guide, Alaska magazine, the

Los Angeles Times, Spirit magazine, and other publications. She received

a BA from Vermont College and holds an MFA in Writing from Spalding

University.







Personal Review: Sarah: How a Hockey Mom Turned the

Political Establishment Upside-Down by Kaylene Johnson

What an enigma. Sarah Palin is a hard to know from available writings in

the marketplace of ideas. So, this book cuts throug h the mud. It is short

on politics and long on personality. It is not a book to dig out political

positions of Alaska's former governor, but it is a good book to see how she

came to be what she is. It becomes clear in this book that through her life

and its experiences, she is a strong-willed person who sets her face like a

flint toward the direction she wishes to go. From the stories of her high

school experiences to the stories regarding her political positioning, it

became apparent to me that this is a person whom I would like to know -- a

different opinion than that of what I had from merely reading what others

say about her.
