| Summary: | "The former attorney general provides a candid account of his historic tenures serving two vastly different presidents, George H.W. Bush and Donald J. Trump"-- "Known for his incisive legal mind, effective management style, and broad experience, William Barr held an impeccable record, including service in the CIA, and appointment in the Reagan White House, and attorney general to President George H. W. Bush. Thirty years later, he returned to the role under Trump. Though not a fan of Trump's impulsive behavior, Barr supported many of his policies and was concerned that a duly elected President was being unjustly attacked. With the country careening toward a possible constitutional crisis, Barr believed those with the ability to help needed to step up when asked regardless of the challenges ahead. A tumultuous two years followed, as Barr confronted some of the greatest controversies of our time. Here he gives his unsparing perspective on all of it, making [this book] essential reading for understanding the Bush and Trump legacies and how both men viewed power and justice at critical junctures of their presidencies" -- Back cover. |
