Dead Certain: The Presidency of George W. Bush

Mr Bush opened the doors of the White House to Robert Draper, a journalist and fellow Texan, whose book, Dead Certain, is to be published tomorrow. Telegraph Article

Product Description (Amazon)
In this ambitious work of political narrative, Robert Draper takes us inside the Bush White House and delivers an intimate portrait of a tumultuous decade and a beleaguered administration. Virtually every page of this book crackles with scenes, anecdotes, and dialogue that will surprise even long-time observers of George W. Bush. With unprecedented access to all the key figures of this administration -- from six one-on-one sessions with the president, to Laura Bush, Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Condoleeza Rice, Karl Rove, and perhaps 200 other players, some well known, some not -- Draper has achieved what no other journalist or contemporary historian has done thus far: He has told the story of the Bush White House form the inside, with a special emphasis on how the very personality of this strong-willed president has affected the outcome of events.
Review by Robert Draper


The book is available for pre-order at Amazon for $18.48 and ready to ship at Abebooks for $ 17.55
