The work : the search for a life that matters
(Book)

Wes Moore's The Other Wes Moore ends when Wes completes his journey from a fatherless delinquent to college graduate and heads off to Oxford on a Rhodes Scholarship. But what happens next? For the next decade, Wes traced a path through some of the most high-pressure workspaces in the world, including as an American student at Oxford after 9/11, a combat officer in Afghanistan, a White House fellow during the tumult of the late Bush years, an Obama organizer during that historic campaign, a Wall Street banker at the cusp of the financial crisis, and finally, back home to Baltimore, working to revitalize that troubled city.
