One of Oklahoma's most famous native sons, Fred Harris faced life's challenges with the same resolve as a favorite uncle: Does people do it? If people does it, I can do it. In this engaging memoir, he describes how he met those challenges head-on.

A child of the Great Depression, Harris grew up in the small town of Walters, Oklahoma, where he was born in a two-room house. He describes that upbringing and his initiation into state politics, and tells how he was elected to the U.S. Senate at the age of thirty-three. As he recounts his experiences in national politics, he yields an insightful look at the turbulent 1960s and 1970s.
