Non-Fiction Biography
The first and only biography of the most controversial u.s.
Attorney general in recent memory In defiance of expectations, statistics, and stereotypes,
Alberto Gonzales has risen to become one of the most
powerful men in America. Gonzales has been the nexus for key
policy points for the Bush administration, and holds
inflammatory and very influential positions on issues that
seize and polarize the nation -- privacy, capital
punishment, and torture. Gonzales's unyielding loyalty to George W. Bush -- during a
time when to call his presidency "controversial" would be an
understatement of massive proportions -- is a fascinating
study in the politics of ambition. From his modest beginnings in Humble, Texas, to his
stone-faced refusal to buckle under the pressure of
dissenters, The President's Counselor provides never-seen
insight into the man whose influence over a very powerful
president in very pressing times will undoubtedly impact
people here and abroad for years to come.
