I enjoyed it. Pretty much confirms my suspicions that GWB, Jr. was an OK guy (an average Joe) who tried to do his job in a reasonable deliberate way. Unfortunately he was vilified by "the loyal opposition" for political reasons and he was encumbered with unfortunate Texas accent & a poor turn of phrase. His perspective is important historically and I am pleased to say I read it while all my associates considered him a dunderhead and not worth reading. While I don't think he will go down in History as one of the five greatest presidents, I am sure 50 years from now he won't be portrayed as the personification of evil and will be found to have acquitted himself reasonably well given the world situation and the political realities.
