Ratings and reviews

I have believed from the beginning Pres. Mr. Bush had done what he believed was best for our country. I loved this book, and have read several others because of this. Wish I could meet him...My hero

I really enjoyed learning more about President Bush's personal side and some of the challenges he faced in life. Regardless of political affiliation, this is a very interesting and well written book.

Best president ever
