Description
Based on research, hours of private interviews, and extraordinary access to Bush's diaries and to his family, Destiny and Power paints a portrait of the distinctive American life of a man from the Greatest Generation: his childhood in Connecticut, his heroic service in World War II, his entry into the Texas oil business, and his storied rise in politics from congressman to U.N. ambassador to head of the CIA to forty-first president of the United States.
