The last man standing? Earth is in crisis. And the intergalactic managers who oversee all creatures of the Milky Way Galaxy are tasked to bottom-line man's usefulness. Should they let homo sapiens survive or watch them continue to their own destruction? To answer that, the extraterrestrials charged with evaluating us as a species discover incredible truths about who we are - the good, the bad, the really, really bizarre. They look at how we govern and decide to change the rules. The Accidental President takes a deep dive into our politics and human nature based on hard-to-believe but historically accurate facts. Take a fresh look at the two-legged creatures who dominate the third planet from the Sun, and follow the extraterrestrials as they tally our vices and virtues to reach a final judgment. Or do they? The Accidental President, I. Michael Grossman's seventh book, is raw satire. You may laugh, even cheer at his take on humanity, or consider him outrageous. But you'll find yourself rolling your eyes about curious creatures known as humankind.
Autorenporträt
The Accidental President is I. Michael Grossman's seventh book. Grossman's six other books run the gamut from poetry to an adult children's book and from fiction to non-fiction. Articles span similarly diverse topics for Advertising Age, Ergo Solutions magazine, The CLIA Cruise Industry Annual Report, The American Banker, and Plane & Pilot magazine. Grossman holds a B.A. and M.A. from Michigan State University. He taught English and Journalism at Oakland Community College before leaving academia for what he was told would be "the real world." He created The Science of Your Own Success, a course taught at the New School in Manhattan, then started four businesses including Cruises of Distinction and Office Organix. "I sold my last two ventures because I had a book to write," says Grossman, referring to his memoir, Shrinkwrapped: my first fifty years on the couch. Grossman currently runs EBookBakery.com and helps fellow authors self-publish. His own books have been both traditionally published and self-published. The 'I.' is the author's full first name and is not an abbreviation. "I claim no responsibility for the name though I participated in the birth," quipped Grossman. Michael, his therapist wife Susan and a varying number of four-legged creatures share blessed lives in Rhode Island.
