Abstract: As the controversial presidency of George W. Bush draws to a close, here is a book that provides the first dispassionate, even-handed assessment of his years in office. Widely respected, Steven E. Schier goes beyond the perspective of contemporary political commentary, and draws on wide-ranging literature about presidential history and strategy to carefully identify both the unique and the familiar aspects of George W. Bush's presidency.
