Overview

Burke (political science, University of Vermont) offers an in-depth account of George W. Bush's unconventional transition to power and the developments that occurred during the early years of his presidency. Examining Bush's domestic and foreign policy initiatives, he demonstrates that, contrary to popular wisdom, decisions made early on shaped the evolution of Bush's leadership after September 11th. A concluding chapter looks at lessons from the Bush transition and presidency, especially in comparison with its recent predecessors. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
