Jon Tester shares with the reader some refreshingly honest and straightforward lessons on life and leadership. In Grounded, this farmer-senator reminds us why authenticity, bipartisanship, and honest leadership still play an important role in our government. This is a powerful contribution to us all at a defining time in our country and the world. --Former U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel, R-Nebraska, and author of America: Our Next Chapter Jon Tester is the essence of a true Montanan. He works hard, stands up to bullies, helps his neighbors, and does it all with such authentic empathy, Democrats and Republicans alike in a deeply red state continue to proudly call him their Senator. His story is one of bravery. Of tirelessly fighting for injustice while learning to do better. He is, truly, a fine example of what makes America great. -- Stephanie Land, New York Times bestselling author of Maid: Hard Work, Low Pay, and A Mother's Will to Survive Jon is a farmer, a teacher, and an advocate for causes that I believe in. He is open minded, open handed, fair. and authentic. He is a beacon for promoting good in the world. --Jeff Bridges
