The Quiet Man: The Indispensable Presidency of George H.W. Bush

“I’m a quiet man, but I hear the quiet people others don’t.”—George H. W. Bush

During his presidency, the Berlin Wall fell and the Soviet Union collapsed. Bush’s calm and capable leadership during this dramatic time helped shape a world in which the United States emerged as the lone superpower.  His Chief of Staff, John Sununu, reminds us that President Bush’s domestic achievements were equally impressive, including strengthening civil rights, enacting environmental protections, and securing passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act and the 1990 agreement which generated budget surpluses and a decade of economic growth.

This insider account pays tribute to as—an intelligent, thoughtful, modest leader—whose accomplishments are often overlooked. Written by John Sununu. Paperback, 448 pages.
