John Bolton
Publisher:

Date:
June 23, 2020
The longtime Republican government official narrates his 519 days as National Security Advisor to President Donald Trump, whom he calls "stunningly uninformed" on matters of foreign policy, and enumerates the many instances of incompetence and malfeasance he witnessed in the White House.
What The Reviewers Say
As much as you think you know about the arrogance, vanity and sheer incompetence of Trump’s years in the White House, Bolton’s account will still astonish you.
Known as a fastidious note taker, Bolton has filled this book’s nearly 500 pages with minute and often extraneous details, including the time and length of routine meetings and even, at one point, a nap. Underneath it all courses a festering obsession with his enemies.
... a White House memoir that is the most comprehensive and negative report on the Trump Administration.
The president portrayed here is not only self-involved but single-minded about pursuing and preserving his own starkly personal interests.
