Quickly, Governor Andrew Cuomo provided the leadership to address the threat, becoming the standard-bearer of the organized response the country desperately needed. With infection rates spiking and more people dying every day, the systems and functions necessary to combat the pandemic in New York--and America--did not exist. So Cuomo undertook the impossible. He unified people to rise to the challenge and was relentless in his pursuit of scientific facts and data. He quelled fear while implementing an extraordinary plan for flattening the curve of infection. He and his team worked day and night to protect the people of New York, despite roadblocks presented by a president incapable of leadership and addicted to transactional politics. <p/>Taking readers beyond the candid daily briefings that became must-see TV across the globe, and providing a dramatic, day-by-day account of the catastrophe as it unfolded, <i>American Crisis </i>presents the intimate and inspiring thoughts of a leader at an unprecedented historical moment. In his own voice, Andrew Cuomo chronicles the ingenuity and sacrifice required of so many to fight the pandemic, sharing the decision-making that shaped his policy as well as his frank accounting and assessment of his interactions with the federal government, the White House, and other state and local political and health officials. Real leadership, he shows, requires clear communication, compassion for others, and a commitment to truth-telling--no matter how frightening the facts may be. <p/>Including a game plan for what we as individuals--and as a nation--need to do to protect ourselves against this disaster and those to come, <i>American Crisis </i>is a remarkable portrait of selfless leadership and a gritty story of difficult choices that points the way to a safer future for all of us. <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> "It is a book unlike anything ever written by a governor before because no one has lived through and managed the crisis that he has."<b>--Lawrence O'Donnell</b> <p/>"The hero that America never realized it needed until he was on our television screens every night . . . has taken his talents to the page."<b>--<i>Entertainment Weekly</i></b> <p/><br></br><p><b> About The Author </b></p></br></br> <b>Andrew Cuomo</b> is the 56th Governor of New York, serving since 2011.
