Work Hard for Your Dog in the Fight

Bag om Work Hard for Your Dog in the Fight

Work Hard for Your Dog in the Fight is a critique of politics, society, American voters, and the two-party system. Author, father, paramedic, and one-time Tea Party candidate Jim Miller may perhaps identify himself as a failure at everything that mainstream society has to offer, but he has composed a unique and thoughtful analysis of American culture that leaves far more popular authors thinking "I wish I'd said that". Work Hard for Your Dog defies categorization. It is a memoir, an essay on racism and a treatise on the republican form of government. Miller presents for your consumption a world-class collection of original satire, prose, a truly unique perspective on the American experience, and a solid introduction to the political arena that is invaluable to anyone considering a career in public office. Each reader will find things to both love and hate about Miller's rendition of eastern North Carolina. No matter whether he is reliving 4-H camp during a hurricane or satirizing the Obama Administration to the score of Gilbert & Sullivan's H.M.S. Pinafore Miller is a consummate writer who never leaves the reader without something to contemplate. But what is perhaps Miller's greatest contribution to the literary world is his ability to be someone who is just like you even though you never know what he is going to say next. For example, while any (failed) politician can write a memoir, only Miller donates 100% of the after-tax proceeds from Work Hard for Your Dog in the Fight to his favorite charity.
