Written in a straightforward manner, Chelsea Manning‘s memoir covers her life leading up to and following her leak of classified documents. Chelsea spent her early life in the Midwest, being raised as a boy. She joined the army after a troubled adolescence and became an intelligence analyst which allowed access to information she leaked to Wikileaks. The largest leak in US history landed her in prison where she fought the military to transition.

“Manning recounts how her pleas for increased institutional transparency and government accountability took place alongside a fight to defend her rights as a trans woman. She details the challenges of her adolescence as a naive, computer-savvy kid, what drew her to the military, and the fierce pride she has about the work she does. This powerful memoir will stand as one of the definitive testaments of our digital, information-driven age.”
