Shortest Way Home

One Mayor's Challenge and a Model for America's Future

Pete Buttigieg

This inspiring memoir tells the story of Pete Buttigieg, the visionary mayor of South Bend, Indiana who transformed a "dying city" into a shining model of urban reinvention. Interweaving two narratives of his personal and political journey, Buttigieg recounts growing up in a Rust Belt city, studying at Harvard and Oxford, and returning to Indiana to revive a once-great industrial city. With gripping stories of confronting gun violence and attracting tech companies to the city, while also coming out and finding love in a conservative state, Shortest Way Home challenges our perception of American politicians and provides a new vision for America's future.

@gingersforpete @PeteButtigieg @FrankBruni I already read Pete’s book (and tweeted out several compelling passages). It was an excellent read.      fuente

@Elex_Michaelson @nytimes I think all some pundits know about @PeteButtigieg is that he’s young and gay. The discussions of him on air are brief and inane. I read his powerful book and yes, I am a fan.      fuente
