Hope and Hard Truth is Mary Beth Rogers’s candid memoir of a life spent in Texas public service, including helping put Ann Richards in the governor’s mansion as manager of her 1990 campaign. A liberal feminist in her beloved, conservative state of Texas, Rogers holds nothing back in sharing her experiences of political intrigue, balancing family life and career, and championing humane public policy.
