About this audiobook
Kelly Kimball, Trish Whitcomb, Andrew Frank, and Barry Fadem met as political consultants, each passionate about the power and potential of democracy throughout the world. A trip to Eastern Europe in 1990 was supposed to be a chance to experience the culture they’d only witnessed from afar. But as the first election approached in Czechoslovakia, the friends and counterparts found themselves in the middle of history—and not just as witnesses.
In Revolution Road Trip, Kimball, Whitcomb, Frank, and Fadem share their story of two weeks spent in the heart of Eastern Europe during the fall of the Iron Curtain. In the right place at the right time, their guidance during a pivotal election allowed them a front-row seat to a complex, bygone era. With entertaining anecdotes and enlightening perspectives, Revolution Road Trip provides a fascinating look at democracy in action and the impact of a few on the lives of millions.
