Inventing Al Gore
A “balanced, insightful” biography of the politician that “shows how the pressure to succeed has shaped virtually every aspect of Gore’s career” (Publishers Weekly, starred review). Why did Al Gore, after angry opposition to the Vietnam War, submit to the draft? What happened in Vietnam that made him sullen and bitter? After he renounced politics, what set this son of a Tennessee senator back on the track mapped out for him? What was the real nature of his partnership with Bill Clinton, and how was it altered by the Lewinsky affair? Inventing Al Gore addresses these issues and more as it unveils the true motivations, ideals, and idiosyncrasies of one of America’s most inscrutable...

Al Gore and Global Warming
Since Al Gores departure from public office in 2001, the former vice president of the United States, senator, and congressman has devoted much of his time to warning the world of alarming climate changes. The message is highly disturbing, but Gore delivers it in his patient southern drawl, assuring audiences that the problem is not beyond solution. His award-winning efforts have helped focus growing attention on global warming. In the process, they have made Gore a more prominent public figure today than ever before. Students examine Gores background as an environmental activist, his work as a journalist and politician, and about his fight to educate people about global warming and its implications.
