Straight from the Heart is Ann Richards s story, told with the
candor and spicy humor that were her trademarks. Born in a tiny
town near Waco, Texas, she entered politics when her husband wouldn
t and went on to become state treasurer, the first woman elected to
statewide office in Texas in fifty years. She had her victories and
her battles (the breakup of a thirty-year marriage and a bout with
alcohol), but her love of Texas and Texas politics made her who she
was.
This extraordinary memoir by one of the nation s leading
politicians proves the wisdom of her observation that women can
have a good and wonderful life, but that it only begins when they
accept responsibility for it, not when they expect someone else to
make it happen. Richards talks openly about the course of her life
and the choices she made on the way. Her hard-won triumphs and
savvy political career provide inspiring examples for all.
