Hardcover. First edition. First printing [stated]. 483 p. Illustrations. Notes. Index. Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Gellman documents how Vice President Dick Cheney redefined the role of the American vice presidency, assuming unprecedented responsibilities and making it a post of historic power. From Wikipedia: "Barton David Gellman (born in 1960) is a Pulitzer Prize-winning American journalist, blogger and bestselling author. After 21 years on the staff of The Washington Post, Gellman resigned in February 2010 to concentrate on book and magazine writing. He now holds positions as contributing Editor At Large of Time magazine, Lecturer and Author in Residence at Princeton University's Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs and Fellow at the Brennan Center for Justice. At Time, Gellman's work has included cover stories on extremist domestic militias, on FBI Director Robert Mueller. and on the early influences in the life of Republican Party Presidential Nominee, Mitt Romney. He also writes Time's CounterSpy blog on digital privacy and security. Before accepting the appointment at Princeton, Gellman was a senior research fellow at the Center on Law and Security at the New York University School of Law. In 2008, Gellman published the bestselling Angler: The Cheney Vice Presidency, which won the Los Angeles Times Book Prize and was named among the 100 Notable Books of 2008 by The New York Times. Gellman is now helping adapt the book for an HBO miniseries. "Angler" grew out of a series of articles with partner Jo Becker on Dick Cheney in The Washington Post, which won the 2008 Pulitzer Prize a George Polk Award, and the Goldsmith Prize for Investigative Reporting. Gellman also shared a Pulitzer for national reporting in 2002. Gellman has previously been a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for Explanatory Reporting, in 1999 and 2004. Other professional honors include two Overseas Press Club awards, the Sigma Delta Chi award from the Society of Professional Journalists, the Gerald Ford Foundation Prize for reporting on national defense, the SAIS-Novartis International Journalism Award and the Jesse Laventhol Award for deadline writing from the American Society of Newspaper Editors. Gellman broke important stories about the use of intelligence leading to the war in Iraq, including the first public reporting on the secretive White House Iraq Group. In previous postings, Gellman covered Washington DC courts, including the trial of former mayor Marion Barry; was Pentagon correspondent during the 1991 Persian Gulf War, the U.S. intervention in Somalia and the social upheavals relating to the status of gays in the military and the assignment of women to combat roles; became Jerusalem bureau chief in 1994, covering peace negotiations, the assassination of Yitzhak Rabin, and the ascent of Benjamin Netanyahu; returned to Washington as diplomatic correspondent, covering Secretary of State Madeleine Albright and the collapse of the United Nations Special Commission (UNSCOM) effort to disarm Iraq; and moved to New York in 1999 to take up the special projects role. Gellman graduated summa cum laude from Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs at Princeton University and was a Rhodes Scholar, earning a master's degree in politics from University College, Oxford. He returned to Princeton for two semesters as Ferris Professor of Journalism in 2002 and 2009, teaching courses called "The Literature of Fact" and "Investigative Reporting.". In addition to the Cheney book, Gellman is author of Contending with Kennan: Toward a Philosophy of American Power, a well-received 1985 study of the post-World War II "containment" doctrine and its architect, George F. Kennan. Very good in very good dust jacket. Notes. Index.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Barton Gellmans newsbreaking investigative journalism documents how Vice President Dick Cheney redefined the role of the American vice presidency, assuming unprecedented responsibilities and making it a post of historic power. Dick Cheney changed history, defining his times and shaping a White House as no vice president has before yet concealing most of his work from public view. Pulitzer Prize-winning Washington Postreporter Barton Gellman parts the curtains of secrecy to show how Cheney operated, why, and what he wrought. Angler, Gellmans embargoed and highly explosive book, is a work of careful, concrete, and original reporting backed by hundreds of interviews with close Cheney allies as well as rivals, many speaking candidly on the record for the first time. On the signature issues of war and peace, Anglertakes readers behind the scenes as Cheney maneuvers for dominance on what he calls the iron issues from Iraq, Iran, and North Korea to executive supremacy, interrogation of Al Qaeda suspects, and domestic espionage. Gellman explores the behind-the- scenes story of Cheneys tremendous influence on foreign policy, exposing how he misled the four ranking members of Congress with faulty intelligence on Iraqi weapons of mass destruction, how he derailed Bush from venturing into Israeli- Palestinian peace talks for nearly five years, and how his policy left North Korea and Iran free to make major advances in their nuclear programs. Domestically, Gellman details Cheneys role as super Chief of Staff , enforcer of conservative orthodoxy; gatekeeper of Supreme Court nominees; referee of Cabinet turf; editor of tax and budget laws; and regulator in chief of the administrations environment policy. We watch as Cheney, the ultimate Washington insider, leverages hisinfluence within the Bush administration in order to implement his policy goals. Gellmans discoveries will surprise even the most astute students of political science. Above all, Angleris a study of the inner workings of the Bush administration and the vice presidents central role as the administrations canniest power player. Gellman exposes the mechanics of Cheneys largely successful post-September 11 campaign to win unchecked power for the commander in chief, and reflects upon, and perhaps changes, the legacy that Cheneyand the Bush administration as a wholewill leave as they exit office.
