Description:   Though reticent in public George Bush openly shared his private thoughts in correspondence throughout his life. This collection of letters diary entries and memos is the closest we ll ever get to an autobiography. Organized chronologically the volume begins with eighteen-year-old George s letters to his parents during World War II when at the time he was commissioned he was the youngest pilot in the Navy. Readers will gain insights into Bush s career highlights--the oil business his two terms in Congress his ambassadorship to the U.N. his service as an envoy to China his tenure with the Central Intelligence Agency and of course the vice presidency the presidency and the post-presidency. They will also observe a devoted husband father and American. Ranging from a love letter to Barbara and a letter to his mother about missing his daughter Robin after her death from leukemia to a letter to his children two weeks before Nixon s resignation to one written to them just before the beginning of Desert Storm the writings are remarkable for their candor humor and poignancy. This new edition includes new letters and photographs that cover the last fifteen years highlighting the Bush family s enduring influence on history and including letters that cover topics such as George W. Bush s presidency 9/11 Bush senior s work with President Clinton to help the victims of natural disasters and the meaning of friendship and family.
