Description
A heartfelt portrait of President George H.W. Bush - and his post-presidential life - by the confidante who knew him best.
Commentaires
“Jean Becker’s beautiful book, The Man I Knew, is a touching and fascinating look at a man both of us loved and admired - George H.W. Bush. As his chief of staff for almost two decades, Becker lovingly reveals stories about her boss that capture all aspects of his life as the ‘Former Leader of the Free World’, as he sometimes called himself after leaving the White House. Her book is a must read for anyone interested in one of the very best presidents in our history.” (James A. Baker III)
"Other than Barbara Bush, Jean Becker probably knew George H.W. Bush better than anyone, so her enchanting, moving and altogether wonderful memoir of her years as his chief of staff is aptly titled. THE MAN I KNEW is an important - no, necessary - addition to the shelf of books about the most beautifully-souled man who ever led this country." (Christopher Buckley)
"What really stunned me about President Bush 41 is that eventually his impression of me doing him was better than my original impression of him. No one said ‘na ga da it’ (not going to do it) quite like 41! I am honored that our friendship is part of this funny, insightful book of a man I came to greatly admire.” (Dana Carvey)
