Donald Henry Rumsfeld (born July 9, 1932) is a retired American political figure and businessman. Rumsfeld served as Secretary of Defense from 1975 to 1977 under Gerald Ford, and again from January 2001 to December 2006 under George W. Bush. He is both the youngest and the second-oldest person to have served as Secretary of Defense. Additionally, Rumsfeld was a three-term U.S. Congressman from Illinois (1963-1969), Director of the Office of Economic Opportunity (1969-1970), Counselor to the President (1969-1973), the United States Permanent Representative to NATO (1973-1974), and White House Chief of Staff (1974-1975). Derived from a Kirkus review: Two-time former Secretary of Defense Rumsfeld condenses the rules that he claims shaped, and were shaped by, a lifetime in business and public service. The author packages his life and times into a breezier format organized around a collection of maxims, which he presents at the end in a 25-page appendix. The author writes that he has collected these thoughts throughout much of his career, and here, he assembles them in a straightforward, inspiring book. Rumsfeld brings his experience to bear in discussing the defense bureaucracy and how it has grown over time. Readers can discover Rumsfeld's thoughts on how to apply for a job, accompanied by reminiscences of people he has hired, including former Vice President Dick Cheney, who became an aide in President Richard Nixon's Office of Economic Opportunity. The collection offers an occasionally intriguing view of the author's career. First Edition [stated]. Sixth printing [stated].…
