Tom Weiner Philadelphia Inquirer A great book...no one beats Woodward.
Description
It is impossible to examine any part of the war on terrorism in the twenty-first century without seeing the hand of Dick Cheney, Colin Powell or one of their loyalists. The Commanders, an account of the use of the military in the first Bush administration, is in many respects their story—the intimate account of the tensions, disagreements and debates on the road to war.

Reviews
Newsweek A telling narrative of leaders in crisis.
USA Today Few if any other reporters but Woodward could have gotten this close to the decision makers.
The New York Times Authoritative...a lively, behind-the-scenes docudrama...filled with accounts of secret Pentagon meetings, political maneuvers, second guesses, and roads not taken.
