    The Leadership of George Bush is infused with a sentimentality exemplified by the book\u27s opening statement describing the Bushes\u27 emotional response to Bush 43\u27s election to the presidency: George Bush sat straight up, his back rigid but his chest heaving slightly as he sought to hold back tears. Barbara Bush sat quietly, unmovable, a glint of satisfaction and pride sparkling in her eyes. Despite the author\u27s proximity and long-time affiliation, the book provides scant new information about Bush 41 \u27s presidency, mostly because the author fails to connect it with larger literatures on presidential leadership and executive management. Instead, it is a rosy peek at Bush 41 from a loyal subject still enamored with his former boss
