Forty-three men have served as President of the United States. Countless books have been written about them. But never before has a President told the story of his father， another President， through his own eyes and in his own words. A unique and intimate biography， the book covers the entire scope of the elder President Bush’s life and career， including his service in the Pacific during World War II， his pioneering work in the Texas oil business， and his political rise as a Congressman， U.S. Representative to China and the United Nations， CIA Director， Vice President， and President. The book shines new light on both the accomplished statesman and the warm， decent man known best by his family. In addition， George W. Bush discusses his father’s influence on him throughout his own life， from his childhood in West Texas to his early campaign trips with his father， and from his decision to go into politics to his own two-term Presidency.
美国已有过43任总统，关于他们的书数不胜数。但从没有一位总统通过自己的视角，自己的语言讲述过他父亲——另一位总统的故事。这是一本特殊的私人传记，涵盖了老布什总统的生活和事业，包括他二战时在太平洋的服役经历，他在德克萨斯从事石油贸易的先驱工作，和他从众议员、美国驻联合国大使、驻华联络处主任、中央情报局局长、副总统、总统的从政之路。这本书的亮点是它从家庭的角度给予了这位政客一个温暖、体面的新形象。小布什还谈了父亲对他的影响，包括从西德州的童年时期到他和父亲早期的竞选活动，从他决定从政到他自己的两任总统生涯。
