內容簡介
《抉擇時刻:喬治·沃克·布希自傳》是一部具有開創性的、令人耳目一新的總統回憶錄,從沒有一本國家領導人的自傳寫得如此誠懇,它將令支持者動容,令批評者驚詫,它將改變世人對美國歷史這不平凡的8年及對喬治·沃克·布希本人的看法。在這部坦誠率直的自傳中,喬治·沃克·布希總統並沒有按時間順序寫自己的人生歷程,而是別出心裁,挑選了決定其總統生涯和個人生活的14個重大決策,詳述了每個重大決策幕後的細節。
President George W. Bush describes the critical decisions of his presidency and personal life.
Decision Points is the extraordinary memoir of America’s 43rd president. Shattering the conventions of political autobiography, George W. Bush offers a strikingly candid journey through the defining decisions of his life.
In gripping, never-before-heard detail, President Bush brings readers inside the Texas Governor’s Mansion on the night of the hotly contested 2000 election; aboard Air Force One on 9/11, in the hours after America’s most devastating attack since Pearl Harbor; at the head of the table in the Situation Room in the moments before launching the war in Iraq; and behind the Oval Office desk for his historic and controversial decisions on the financial crisis, Hurricane Katrina, Afghanistan, Iran, and other issues that have shaped the first decade of the 21st century.
President Bush writes honestly and directly about his flaws and mistakes, as well as his accomplishments reforming education, treating HIV/AIDS in Africa, and safeguarding the country amid chilling warnings of additional terrorist attacks. He also offers intimate new details on his decision to quit drinking, discovery of faith, and relationship with his family.
A groundbreaking new brand of memoir, Decision Points will captivate supporters, surprise critics, and change perspectives on one of the most consequential eras in American history – and the man at the center of events.
