About this ebook
Entrepreneur. Congressman. Convicted Felon. Presidential Pardon Recipient.
Chris Collins rose to the highest levels of business and politics—only to face a fall from grace that nearly destroyed him. As a successful entrepreneur and the first member of Congress to endorse Donald J. Trump for President, Collins was a power player at the peak of American influence. You could often find him in the halls of Congress, in Presidential meetings in the Roosevelt room, aboard Air Force One, or inside the Oval Office.
Then came a public scandal that ended in federal prison—and a presidential pardon that stunned the nation.
This is the inside story of how a man who built an empire lost it all, and what it took to survive the darkest days of isolation. Brutally honest, surprisingly hopeful, and deeply human, My Remarkable Life is a story of accountability, resilience, and the long road back.
