Losers: Interesting Americans who lost Presidential Elections is light-hearted, personal, and interactive and can be read front-to-back or episodically. It’s written for the general adult reader who is interested in history, politics, elections, gossip, and those who love lists and creating their own.
Readers discover losers who went to bed thinking they had won, losers who received more popular and electoral votes than the winner, a loser who was a bastard before he went into politics, a loser who created a winning idea that was then used against him, losers who became president, and presidents who became losers.
Quotes from each candidate focus the election issues; many are still relevant today. The stories are supported by data and features that help the reader understand the times and increase the interactivity of the book including explanations of timely events or issues, related information, a fun multiple-choice test, and a place for the reader to vote for or against the loser.
Losers is a book that can be updated and extended for every election. Imagine a trivia game, a television series or program. The “losers” idea could be developed into a franchise that highlights losing competitors in other arenas.
