Chapter 10 A Strange Sort of Luck
Activities
Introduction
I wasn’t sure that I wanted to work for Jack. Still, there was something
different about him
. . .
Jack Stanton is the governor of a state in the southern USA. He
wants to be President, and he wants Henry Burton to help him.
At first, Henry is happy to work with Jack, but he begins to
worry when he sees that Stanton will do
anything
to win . . .
The author of
Primary Colors
is an American journalist. Although
it is a fictional story, the author used his personal knowledge of a
real American President to write it. That is why he decided to
keep his name a secret.
Primary Colors
was made into a successful
movie, with John Travolta as Governor Stanton.
