Descripción del producto

Nota de la solapa

f the pivotal times of the twentieth century--during George Bush's presidency, an extraordinary series of international events took place that materially changed the face of the world. Now, former President Bush and his national security advisor, Brent Scowcroft, tell the story of those tumultuous years.

Here are behind-the-scenes accounts of critical meetings in the White House and of summit conferences in Europe and the United States, interspersed with excerpts from Mr. Bush's diary. We are given fresh and intriguing views of world leaders such as Mikhail Gorbachev, Boris Yeltsin, Margaret Thatcher, Helmut Kohl, and François Mitterrand--and witness the importance of personal relationships in diplomacy. There is the dramatic description of how President Bush put together the alliance against Saddam Hussein in the Gulf War. There are the intensive diplomatic exchanges with Beijing following the events of Tiananmen Square, and the intricate negotiations leading up to German reunificat

Interesting insider insights

Revisado en los Estados Unidos el 27 de agosto de 2005

I'm no expert on the end of the Cold War, nor on the many issues Bush and Scowcroft discuss. There are too many people who argue that the end of the Cold War had everything or nothing to do with Ronald Reagan. As Bush and Scowcroft make plain, intentionally or not, change was coming around too quickly for anyone to claim credit. I know the standard story-line: Reagan raised defense spending and this drove the Soviets to spend until they collapsed. It's a simple story, but it leaves out far too much to be accurate. Bush was on the tail end of a decades-long strategy of containment; thankfully all presidents stood their ground in confronting the Soviets. Perhaps we should all recognize how fortunate we were to have Bush and Scowcroft in leadership positions for the four years they served as President and National Security Adviser. Admittedly cautious, they used their time wisely in dealing with the Soviet Union.

Very thorough in dealing with German reunification and in standing up to Saddam. It's amazing to read the Gulf War stuff: Bush and Scowcroft discuss the importance of alliances, the UN Security Council, containment, and the difficulties of urban warfare. Apparently someone's son did not read the book. Are we better off or worse off for that? Time will tell.

In a sense the book is not co-written because the two authors go back and forth in describing their different memories of the four Bush White House years. An original approach.

Unfortunately, no discussion on the U.S. invasion of Panama.

George Bush and Brent Scowcroft, “A World Transformed: The Collapse of the Soviet Empire; The Unification of Germany; Tianamen Square; The Gulf War.” Written in three voices: George Bush (pere), Brent Scowcroft, and we – we appears to be written by James McCall “who had been doing similar work for Paul Nitze.” It was easy to contrast this 560 page one volume doorstop with Kissinger’s double door stop (“The White House Years” and “The State Department Years”) and Churchills six volume “The Second World War.” All three state the case by political figures as to why their splendid work makes them statesmen. Among the differences: Churchill and Kissinger are masters of English prose; Bush and Scowcroft are literate. Churchill and Kissinger were visionaries; Bush and Scowcroft were functionaries. Churchill led the West to victory in the Second World War. Kissinger drove the Soviets out of the Middle East, enabled a fragile peace there, ended the Viet Nam War with a peace that might have lasted, but was destroyed by Frank Church who I confide is rotting in Hell. As for Bush and Scowcroft: Russia under Putin is striving to restore a new Russian Empire; Germany is free and unified; post Tiananmen Square, China is an expansive and poisonous dictatorship, post Gulf War, it is not clear if things are better. In the one clear positive result – a free and unified Germany it seems to me the credit goes to Helmut Kohl – while Bush and Scowcroft held his hat and coat.

The politics of excellence with which George Bush's presidency in a short time miraculously changed the entire world!

I greatly enjoyed reading this, what only be described as history changing & enlightening, book written by George H.W. Bush and Brent Scowcroft themselves! If I can distinguish this original in thought book's content is that, unlike all the other George Bush books I've read, this one focuses more on the pure politics and policies of George Bush's presidency and less on other life information. It is a must buy for all lovers of real history at its crossroads when the new world order was coming full of hope for the future. And where the entire world's morbid existential fears of the Cold War period George Bush unbelievably effective policies finally ended for the long-lasting economic, political and multiple other benefit of all mankind. For all this and much more we should all be eternally grateful for his high world class professional leadership!

This book felt very realistic to me. It didn’t feel self congratulatory but instead showed how a team can navigate a major change in a positive way. This book really hammers home my belief that things could have been so much worse if they hadn’t been handled calmly as the Soviet Union and Warsaw Pact collapsed.
