Description: White House chief of staff twice over, former secretary of state, past secretary of the treasury, and campaign leader for three different candidates in five successful campaigns--few people have lived and breathed politics as deeply or for as long as James Baker. Now, with candor, down-home Texas storytelling, and more than a few surprises, Baker opens up about his thirty-five years behind the scenes.
Review Quotes: "The stiletto once wielded so deftly by Baker in Washington has not gone dull. Baker . . . here offers a more personal account that implicitly contrasts the past with the present, and is the more telling for its restraint." --Jacob Heilbrunn, The New York Times
