Présentation de l'éditeur :
In his fourth book on President George W. Bush and his wars, Bob Woodward takes readers deep inside the White House, the Pentagon, the State Department, the intelligence agencies and the U.S. military headquarters in Iraq to trace the behind-the-scenes debates over the Iraq War from 2006 through mid-2008.
Following in the same tradition of measured, documented reporting as #1 New York Times bestsellers Bush at War (2002), Plan of Attack (2004) and State of Denial (2006), Woodward presents readers with a richly detailed and meticulously researched examination of the war in Iraq over the past two years. Full of timely, never-before-published information, this book reveals crucial lessons of leadership and tells the stories of those whose public and private lives have been entwined with the Iraq War.
This fast-paced, groundbreaking book offers a unique and in-depth look at events in Iraq and in Washington, D.C. Woodward has produced a firsthand account of the decision-making process on Iraq, affording readers a fly-on-the-wall view of the inner workings of the Bush administration, the highest levels of the military and the intelligence community. Casting both the war and its management in human terms, Woodward makes clear why, five and a half years after the U.S. invasion, Iraq remains a major political, social and moral issue. He also contributes to Americans' understanding of why this complex, dangerous fight is such a critical fault line in this year's presidential election.

'The War Within deals with the decisions that led the US from the brink of catastrophe in Iraq to the successes that followed the 2007 troop surge. The president was the driving force behind the surge' Irish Examiner 20/9
'In the course of four books [Woodward] has given the readers the conversations and documents we need to reach our own judgments... They stand as the fullest story yet of the Bush presidency and of the war which is likely to be its most important legacy'
The Scotsman 11/10
'Books have streamed from American publishing houses on the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, many of them first-hand accounts by former members of the Bush administration and the American military (compare and contrast...)... Where Woodward scores over all of them is in both his extraordinary access to the leading protagonists from the President down; and his ability to get them to unburden themselves on the record'
Christopher Meyer, Spectator 25/10
'Woodward's access to the White House has been unrivalled for a journalist'
Guardian 25/10

Description du livre Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. 1st Edition. 487 pp. Credited with setting the standard of investigative journalism, Bob Woodward won his first Pulitzer prize when he broke the Watergate Scandal, which led to the resignation of Richard Nixon. He won the second Pulitzer for his coverage of 9/11 at The Washington Post, where he has worked for 37 years. Dedicating his last three books to the subject of Bush's presidency and its impact on the world, his new book, The War Within, is the last devastating blow to the administration; a final beheading of a government Woodward has publicly criticised but privately tried to understand.
