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

“Vivid storytelling.” — WASHINGTON TIMES

Editorial Reviews

Review

“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

Disappointed!

My mother is a savagette and has been for a long time. She wanted this new book and so I ordered it in advance for her. Almost all of the stories can be found in Savage's previous book Train Tracks ( which she already has). There are only 3 new short stories at the end. Very disappointed!

what a GREAT READ

Reviewed in the United States on August 4, 2019

Thanks for sharing life Michael Savage this was a fun book with some great stories. I grew up also in a poor family with an absent father. There was 6 0f us only a year apart living in the suburbs of Seattle. It was in the 50 and 60's we had tough days but it was still good times with many great memories. We even had a dog named tippy who was crazy. The first slice of pizza did smell like vomit. It was like a new visit to the past with very similar life stories. I got my clothes usually from the good will. . I am going to give my copy to a close friend who grew up on long island and I know he will really enjoy this as I have. This book will take you on a journey through life like few such books ever do. Get it now, you will not regret it.

Mr. savage can be abrasive and even offensive to those newer listeners, but this book brings out the truly human and compassionate side of him. Some of the stories are hilarious and a few are heartbreaking. A good read from an intelligent author.

Bought this for my cousin who is a Savage fan. He loved this book. He said it was cool because he got to learn more about Savage himself rather than his works. Good purchase for a Savage fan.

Great stories...but..

Reviewed in the United States on July 26, 2019

I enjoyed the book of short stories by Dr. Savage. The stories regarding his childhood as a young Jew in New York was very interesting.
Looking forward to the good doctor starting his new political movement!
