The former federal prosecutor and congressman for South Carolina breaks down the art of persuasion into a few shockingly simple, easy-to-follow, and proven steps that will help readers win arguments, gain support for their cause, and convey their message successfully.
Trey Gowdy is a former state and federal prosecutor who experienced the criminal justice system firsthand for nearly two decades. In 2010, he was elected to Congress, where he chaired the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform and the Select Committee on Benghazi. After serving four terms, he decided to leave politics and return to private law practice. Gowdy is the co-author of the New York Times bestseller Unified. He is married to Terri Dillard Gowdy, and they have two children and three dogs.
"Gowdy was tough when he was a federal prosecutor, and he drew on
that experience when interrogating individuals who appeared before
Congress, during his tenure as a South Carolina representative. He
possesses an uncanny ability to ask the right questions to pull out
the truth from those on Capitol Hill-no easy feat. Doesn't Hurt
to Ask demonstrates how to ask questions to move people and get
the answers you need to make decisions and become a stronger
communicator."-Sean Hannity, nationally syndicated radio and TV
host and bestselling author of Live Free or Die
"If I could have anyone in the world argue my case, it would be
Trey Gowdy-the person I trust the most to make common sense.
Whether it's made on a football field or in a courtroom, a good
argument is a good argument, no matter the authority. In Doesn't
Hurt to Ask, Gowdy is the authority."-Lou Holtz, hall of fame
coach and bestselling author of Wins, Losses, and Lessons
"Gowdy, one of our finest courtroom lawyers, has written a very
fine book on the art of persuasion. In Doesn't Hurt to Ask, you'll
learn a lot about the importance of listening to evidence, using
words with precision, and, above all, asking good questions. You'll
also learn some things about being a better person. In the end,
this is a book about finding a purpose bigger than yourself, and
then moving others toward that purpose with you."-William J.
Bennett, bestselling author of The Book of
Virtues
