From former NBC writer and producer James Gannon comes a fresh critique of The Reckless Presidency of George W. Bush. Few books about Bush’s term avoid blind, emotion-fueled criticism of the man. Gannon, instead of focusing on the man, presents a fact-based case against the President’s policies.
Gannon follows the creation of policies that resulted in key failings of Bush’s administration, such as the barbaric torture of detainees, the overt upper-class economic favoritism, and the censorship of climate science, presenting each with the clear, articulate language of a journalist and scholar.
Many historians agree that Bush failed as a president. His disastrous policies drove the country nearly to ruin. When readers learn the facts about those policies, they will learn from history, and we will not be doomed to repeat The Reckless Presidency of George W. Bush.
