Abstract

Voici le témoignage extraordinaire du 43e président des Etats-Unis. Rompant avec les conventions de l'autobiographie politique, George W Bush se propose, avec une franchise remarquable, de revenir sur les décisions les plus importantes de sa vie. A travers des épisodes captivants et encore jamais dévoilés, le président Bush emmène les lecteurs dans la propriété du gouverneur du Texas, la nuit des élections vivement contestées de 2000 ; il les convie à bord d'Air Force One, le jour du 11 Septembre, juste après l'attaque la plus foudroyante subie par les Etats-Unis depuis Pearl Harbor ; il les invite à la tête du Conseil de sécurité nationale, dans la Situation Room, quelques instants avant le lancement de la guerre en Irak ; et enfin, il les fait asseoir derrière le Bureau Ovale lors de toutes les décisions controversées qu'il a prises concernant la crise financière, l'ouragan Katrina, l'Afghanistan, l'Iran, et toutes les autres questions qui ont déterminé la première décennie du XXIe siècle. Le président Bush nous parle avec honnêteté et franchise de ses défauts et de ses erreurs, aussi bien que de ses succès : sa réforme de l'enseignement, sa campagne de traitement du virus du sida en Afrique. Il nous dévoile également des détails intimes inédits sur sa décision d'arrêter l'alcool, sur sa découverte de la foi et sur ses relations familiales.

Abstract

A hinge moment in recent American history, 1995 was an exceptional year. Drawing on interviews, oral histories, memoirs, archival collections, and news reports, W. Joseph Campbell presents a vivid, detail-rich portrait of those memorable twelve months. This book offers fresh interpretations of the decisive moments of 1995, including the emergence of the Internet and the World Wide Web in mainstream American life; the bombing at Oklahoma City, the deadliest attack of domestic terrorism in U.S. history; the sensational "Trial of the Century," at which O.J. Simpson faced charges of double murder; the U.S.-brokered negotiations at Dayton, Ohio, which ended the Bosnian War, Europe’s most vicious conflict since the Nazi era; and the first encounters at the White House between Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky, a liaison that culminated in a stunning scandal and the spectacle of the president’s impeachment and trial. As Campbell demonstrates in this absorbing chronicle, 1995 was a year of extraordinary events, a watershed at the turn of the millennium. The effects of that pivotal year reverberate still, marking the close of one century and the dawning of another.
