Description
What happened inside the White House in the days, weeks, and months after September 11, 2001? In Bush at War, legendary investigative journalist Bob Woodward — the reporter who helped break the Watergate scandal — takes readers behind the closed doors of the most consequential presidency of the early 21st century to reveal how America’s war on terror was planned, debated, and launched.
Based on extensive interviews with President George W. Bush himself, his war cabinet, and hundreds of pages of classified documents, Woodward reconstructs the intense deliberations that led to the invasion of Afghanistan and the broader global response to the September 11 attacks. He captures the personalities, tensions, and power dynamics between the key players — including Vice President Dick Cheney, Secretary of State Colin Powell, Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, and National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice — as they navigated one of the most defining crises in modern history.
What makes this book extraordinary is the level of access Woodward was granted. The result is a detailed, almost minute-by-minute account of how decisions were made under enormous pressure — decisions that would reshape global politics for decades to come. Whether you lived through those events or are studying them for the first time, this book offers unparalleled insight into how power operates in wartime.
