Fighting Back: The War on Terrorism-From Inside the Bush White House by Bill Sammon Regnery Publishing, Inc.; ISBN: 0895261499 Hardcover - (October, 2002) The First Book Ever on George W. Bush's Presidency... WARTIME PRESIDENT How Bush Led America Through "the Middle Hour of our Grief" The Democrats underestimated him. The media ridiculed him. But when terror struck on September 11, 2001, George Bush proved what kind of man he truly is. And, as Bill Sammon recounts in his new book, that was just the beginning. In Fighting Back, you get the first book ever on George W. Bush's presidency --and the first comprehensive look at how Bush is leading the war on terror. From the moment when Andy Card whispered into his President's ear "Mr. President, America is under attack," best-selling author Bill Sammon brings us an eye-witness account of that historic day, and the days that follow. You get a front-row seat to President Bush's emotion as he delivered his stirring speech at the National Cathedral ... his compassion as he wrapped his arm around a dust-covered, world-weary firefighter at ground zero ... his resolve as he and his cabinet members weighed the options in planning our political and military response ... his private thoughts as our first fighter planes struck their targets ... his confidence as the final battle against the Taliban was waged. As White House correspondent for the Washington Times, Sammon is uniquely qualified to bring us this story. He was in the schoolroom in Florida on the morning of September 11. He also gained two lengthy, personal interviews with President Bush in the months following the attack, when he was able to learn exactly what Bush thought, felt, struggled with and resolved in the hours and days after the attack. You'll discover: exactly what happened - and what Bush was told - in the minutes and hours after the attacks, as Bush was rushed aboard Air Force One (including the reasons behind not returning to Washington DC immediately) how Bush won a new category of swing voters across the country with his clear and strong response to the terrorists how "support" for the President among outspoken liberals was based on polls, not patriotism a behind-the-scenes look at Bush's heart-rending meeting with the families of the victims in New York how the media deliberately misrepresented and misreported the war in Afghanistan the pivotal battle in Afghanistan that will be studied for generations by military historians how Democrats predicted Afghanistan would be a quagmire - and then had to change their tune when our military success became obvious an intimate look at George Bush the man, and the emotions he experienced on September 11 and the days that followed Fighting Back gives you an extraordinarily dramatic, blow-by-blow account of a President thrust into a new kind of war. It describes history in the making, and the emergence of a great leader. Price: $20.95 - Click here to order:
