Not Afraid Of Life

The oldest daughter of Sarah Palin and single mother goes beyond the headlines, offering readers an inside look at her life, her world, and the things that matter most, including her family and the faith that keeps her centered. When her mother became the Republican Vice Presidential candidate in 2008, Bristol Palin was instantaneously thrust into the national spotlight, becoming the focus of intense media scrutiny at seventeen. In Not Afraid of Life, Bristol gives readers an intimate behind-the-scenes look at her life for the first time, from growing up in Alaska to coming of age amid the media hoopla surrounding her mother's rise; from becoming a single mother while still a teenager to coping as her relationship with her baby's father crumbled publicly-not once, but twice.
