The Fighting Soul is a behind-the-scenes chronicle of Sanders's meteoric 2020 campaign for president-from the first campaign meeting in Rabin-Havt's living room to Sanders's heart attack and the end of the campaign as the COVID-19 pandemic spread around the world-that deepens into an unforgettable portrait of Sanders: the history that drives his deep ideological commitments to the working class, his views of his young supporters, his sense of humor, which few outside his immediate circle ever witness, and the role his wife, Jane, plays in his success.
