| | | A Pulitzer Prize winner and #1 bestselling author of "The Price of Loyalty" returns with an explosive election year account of the looming national security crisis that America faces right now. Annotation: Ronald Suskind's accounts of the behind-the-scenes drama in America's War on Terror contain a number of stunning revelations or charges, including the headline-making one that the George W. Bush administration forged a letter in order to prop up its charges of an Iraq connection to the events of September 11, 2001. As he did in his previous best seller, THE ONE-PERCENT DOCTRINE, Suskind draws on interviews with those deep within the White House, the administration, and the intelligence community. He also traces many global connections, as he ultimately shows that America has lost the moral high ground and cannot effectively fight what Suskind sees as a very real threat to our national security.
| Praise| "In a crowded, highly talented field, Mr. Suskind bids fair to claim the crown as the most perceptive, incisive, dogged chronicler of the inner workings of the Bush administration....Behind the highly promoted scandals in THE WAY OF THE WORLD lies a complex web of intersecting stories, the plotlines of a varied traveling company of actors whose doings Mr. Suskind chronicles with meticulous care....These narratives and others perform, in Mr. Suskind's hands, an intricate arabesque and manage, to a rather remarkable degree, to show us, in this age of terror, "the true way of the world." - Mark Danner 08/27/2008 |
