\u201cDon\u2019t Mess With Travis\u201d<\/a> by Bob Smiley, a Princeton alum from the class of 1999 (and my college roommate). The book centers around a Texas governor by the name of Ben Travis who leads his state down the road to secession. You can only push Texans around for so long before we push back!<\/p>\nI guarantee you out loud laughs for people on both sides of the political aisle. As Steve Forbes recently said, \u201cIf there were a Nobel Prize for political wit, Bob Smiley\u2019s novel Don\u2019t Mess With Travis would win it in a landslide.\u00a0Much needed in this angry political season!\u201d<\/p>\n
