Location: The Heritage Foundation's Lehrman Auditorium
In
Rebel-in-Chief, veteran political reporter Fred Barnes
provides an insider's view of how George W. Bush's unique
presidential style and bold reforms are dramatically remaking the
country. In the process, Barnes shows how the president is shaking
up Washington and reshaping the conservative movement, too.
Granted extraordinary access to the Bush administration for
Rebel-in-Chief, he conducted rare one-on-one interviews
with President Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney, Secretary of State
Condoleezza Rice, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, and many other
close presidential advisers. That access, along with Barnes's
extensive independent reporting and interviewing, produces an
eye-opening look at this highly consequential - and controversial -
presidency.
George W. Bush billed himself as a "different kind of Republican."
He has proved to be a different kind of President, too. And
Barnes's behind-the-scenes account helps us understand how much
this "Rebel-in-Chief" is reshaping the world around us.
