All the Best, George Bush: My Life in Letters and Other Writings

by 

George H.W. Bush

In lieu of a memoir, All the Best, George Bush collects correspondence and diary entries from the former U.S. president to show, as he says, what my own heartbeat is, what my values are, what has motivated me in life. The letters begin in 1942–when, fresh out of high school, Bush volunteered for U.S. Navy flight school–and continue to the brink of the 21st century, as the retired chief executive worries about the Melissa virus infecting his office s server and keeping his visiting grandchildren in line. ( I realize, he muses, Keep the freezer door closed from now on and I mean it lacks the rhetorical depth of This will not stand or Read my lips. ) All the Best hits all the highlights of Bush s career, from the Texas oil business to his role as ambassador to China, then CIA director, vice president under Ronald Reagan, and finally president himself. Along the way, he reveals a personality that is at turns compassionate, respectful, silly, doting, and resolute–a man for whom being a father and a grandfather matters as much as, and maybe even more than, being leader of the free world. Fans and detractors alike will find in All the Best an intimate human portrait that offers as sure a self-definition of Bush s personal life as A World Transformed did his presidential career.
