Editorial Reviews
Review
“Compelling reading: Mr. Frum writes with wit and style, and with an eye for detail.”
—The Wall Street Journal
“Engagingly candid . . . [Frum] is too sharp an observer and too unstinting a critic to settle for gauzy platitudes about Bush’s greatness.”
—USA Today
“Frum’s rich anecdotes and smooth writing contribute to a work that provides more insight into Bush’s personality than any since Bill Minutaglio’s 1999 book, First Son.”
