Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A visually stunning portrait of George Herbert Walker Bush, featuring never-before-published photos and memories celebrating the forty-first president's vision of leadership as service to countrycurated by Pulitzer Prizewinning biographer Jon MeachamAs American politics has descended into deeper division and extremism, Bush is, in a sense, a countercultural figure. Reflexive partisanship has become fashionable; the politics of total war more common; the center ever smaller. Yet George H. W. Bush embraced compromise as a necessary element of public life, engaged his political foes in the passage of important legislation, and was willing to break with the base of his own party in order to do what he thought was right, whatever the price.from the IntroductionLavishly illustrated, The Call to Serve is an intimate, illuminating portrait of the forty-first president, a man who was so much more than just his politics. In words and imagesmany found in a lifetime of scrapbooks kept by Barbara Pierce BushJon Meacham brings George H. W. Bush vividly to life.

The Call to Serve commemorates the legacy of a man who was far from perfect but whose ambition was not an end unto itself. Bush's drive to succeed was, rather, a means to put the values of balance, patriotism, and respect for others into action in the political arena. A biographical masterpiece, The Call to Serve is an essential tribute to a uniquely American life.…
