Über diesen Titel

 Former president George Bush has no plans to write his autobiography, so this collection of letters, diary entries, and memos, plus his commentary, fills that void. The volume includes letters from Bush to his parents during World War II, a love letter to wife Barbara, letters to his children (written just before Richard Nixon's resignation and at the beginning of Desert Storm), and many more. They offer insights into Bush's career, from the Navy to the oil business, and his political life: two terms in Congress, an ambassadorship to the U.N., his tenure with the Central Intelligence Agency, the vice presidency, the presidency, and the post-presidency. As the Bushes continue to emerge as a major political family, this portrait of its unassuming patriarch is timely and important, offering an intimate look at one of America's most private public figures.©1999 George H.W.

Beschreibung von Audible

I found this to be a very interesting look into the personal and private life of our 41st President, George Bush. What struck me most was that as a young man of 18 or so, President Bush, even then, had such a tremendous sense of morals, dignity, honor, and duty. Values that never left him in the course of his 50 years of public service which followed. While his decisions may not have always been right or popular, they were always made from the heart with a firm belief in what he felt was right, and not based on the latest poll numbers. (Tony, Senior Director of Finance)
