About the Author:
JACOB WEISBERG is the editor-in-chief of Slate. He is a frequent commentator on National Public Radio. He previously worked for the New Republic and was a contributing writer for the New York Times Magazine and a contributing editor to Vanity Fair. He is the inventor and author of the "Bushisms" series. He is also the author, with Robert Rubin, of In an Uncertain World. His first book, In Defense of Government, was published in 1996.
From Publishers Weekly:
Framing the Bush administration as a Shakespearean tragedy, Weisberg provides an intriguing interpretation of Bush and his motivations thus far. Part armchair therapist and part literary critic, Weisberg chips away at the various public and private personalities Bush has presented over the years to demonstrate his insecurities. Examining his relationships to family and friends as well as isolating particular lines of dialogue as key insights into Bush's true nature, Weisberg keenly illustrates how Bush's insecurities have played out on a global scale. Weisberg also juxtaposes Bush within his family legacy, by drawing comparisons between his style of leadership with those on the Walker side of the family. In his deep voice, Robertson Dean provides an enjoyable performance that works well with Weisberg's prose. His deliberate cadence and well-placed emphasis makes the narration easy to follow and understand. Dean projects power and energy and is sure to have listeners looking for other audiobooks he reads that offer more narrative prose.
