Description:   This is a Pre-Owned book. All our books are in Good or better condition. Format: Paperback Author: George H.W. Bush ISBN10: 0743200411 ISBN13: 9780743200417 Though reticent in public George Bush has openly shared his private thoughts in correspondence throughout his life. Fortunately since the former president does not plan to write his autobiography this collection of letters diary entries and memos with his accompanying commentary will fill that void. As he writes in his preface So what we have here are letters from the past and present. Letters that are light and hopefully amusing. Letters written when my heart was heavy or full of joy. Serious letters. Nutty letters. Caring and rejoicing letters.Its all about heartbeat. Organized chronologically the volume begins with eighteen-year-old Georges 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 Bushs 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 postpresidency. 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 Nixons resignation to one written to them just before the beginning of Desert Storm the writings are remarkable for their candor humor and poignancy.
