Synopsis

More Info About George W. Bush: An Unauthorized Oral History

Tom was so excited about the book that he couldn't help himself... he went to the Amazon book review site. It's a site where readers review books they've read. So this one woman from Texas loved the book. Says she laughed out loud many times. She gave the book 5 stars. Tom was thrilled.

Inspired quotes from the president's inner circle reveal long-simmering tensions between George H. W. and Barbara Bush; Condoleezza's unrequited love; Cheney's descent into madness; and much, much more.
