Real grassroots?

Lots of student editorials (well several) argued that the Tea Party movement is 1) not very well organized and 2) not really a grassroots movement.  So, of course this book by Jeffery Stout catches my attention.  The publisher's description promises stories of "ordinary" citizens working together in ways that preserve democracy and make America a better place.
  
Who has room on their Christmas list for this book and will read it before January?  I'd love to have it be part of our conversation in AmCon 102, Democratic Vistas! Maybe we can share a copy and each take a chapter?
