Radio legend Michael Savage reveals the man behind the microphone, sharing his extraordinary American journey and the adventures that shaped him.

**FEATURING EXCLUSIVE, NEVER-BEFORE-PUBLISHED NEW MATERIAL**

For twenty-five years, Michael Savage has captivated listeners on his national radio show The Savage Nation, which reaches a loyal audience of more than ten million each week. In A Savage Life, the usually private man tells his own compelling story in forty-six vignettes that span his childhood to today. These tales of Savage's journey from poor immigrant's son in New York City to media star are deeply personal and revealing: he writes of being so poor as a child that he had to wear a dead man's pants; of the various trials that beset his parents and "silent brother," Jerome, who was sent to an institution; of his botanical expeditions to Fiji in the 1970's; and, most of all, of his family, his sustaining force throughout.

"A marvelous storyteller." - THE NEW YORKER

Reviews
"Vivid storytelling. ... Michael Savage is one of the most influential conservative voices in America." - Brett M. DECKER, Washington Times "Savage recalls his childhood growing up in the Bronx. ... He's got the knack for evocative detail, and this series of short vignettes features some indelible images, such as the immigrant father who, insisting that nothing be wasted, forced his son to wear dead men's trousers." - Washington Post "A marvelous storyteller." - The New Yorker
