- Summary:
- From the author of eight "New York Times" bestsellers comes an authoritative account of the first 18 months of the Bush White House, and perhaps the biggest story since the end of the Vietnam War. Based on hundreds of interviews throughout the Administration, Woodward's account will provide the first in-depth, behind-the-scenes story of the new, untested President as he responds to the worst acts of terror on American soil.
