Visionary. Iconoclast. Political Survivor. "A powerful and entertaining look" (Governor Gavin Newsom) at the extraordinary life and political career of Governor Jerry Brown.Jerry Brown is no ordinary politician. Like his state, he is eclectic, brilliant, unpredictable and sometimes weird. And, as with so much that California invents and exports, Brown's life story reveals a great deal about this country. With the exclusive cooperation of Governor Brown himself, Jim Newton has written the definitive account of Jerry Brown's life. The son of Pat Brown, who served as governor of California through the 1960s, Jerry would extend and also radically alter the legacy of his father through his own service in the governor's mansion. As governor, first in the 1970s and then again, 28 years later in his remarkable return to power, Jerry Brown would propound an alternative menu of American values: the restoration of the California economy while balancing the state budget, leadership in the international campaign to combat climate change and the aggressive defense of California's immigrants, no matter by which route they arrived. It was a blend of compassion, far-sightedness and pragmatism that the nation would be wise to consider. The story of Jerry Brown's life is in many ways the story of California and how it became the largest economy in the United States. Man of Tomorrow traces the blueprint of Jerry Brown's off beat risk-taking: equal parts fiscal conservatism and social progressivism. Jim Newton also reveals another side of Jerry Brown, the once-promising presidential candidate whose defeat on the national stage did nothing to diminish the scale of his political, intellectual and spiritual ambitions. To the same degree that California represents the future of America, Jim Newton's account of Jerry Brown's life offers a new way of understanding how politics works today and how it could work in the future.

Great Western Cowboy Vest for Costume Use
I bought the Men's Western Cowboy Vest with fringe as part of a Halloween costume, and it was perfect for what I needed! The style and details really added to the look and gave my costume an authentic vibe. At 6'3", I found it a little on the short side, but it still worked fine for my purposes.
Since I bought it just for a one-time wear, I can’t really comment on the quality or durability for regular use, but for a costume piece, it absolutely served its purpose. If you’re looking for a stylish, western-themed vest for a costume or occasional event, this is a solid, budget-friendly choice!

Great for the price.
Color: Brown, Size: X-Large
I bought this vest for my brother in the Philippines. He like a vest with a fringe or tassel, and this is the only item that has it. I am rating it a 5 star because of a quick replacement for the defective item that I received at first. The materials used are thin, however, the vest still looks great. I hope they will last a bit longer after several washing.

Cheap-poorly made junk
Color: Coffee, Size: XX-Large
I needed a vest with some fringe for a costume party on 11/24/23. I looked at many others but decided on this one due to the fact it would arrive on Wednesday instead of Friday, the day of the party. I beyond disappointed in the quality and fit of this vest. I knew that it was faux leather but it was the worst faux leather type material I had ever seen. The fit was terrible, said 2xl but 1xl tops. It was probably my worst purchase ever on Amazon. Save your money and do not purchase this vest.
