THE PRICE OF POLITICS
Inside the Obama White House by investigative journalist and Presidential historian Bob Woodward. Based on extensive interviews with participants, contemporaneous notes and secret documents, the book gives readers a behind-the-scenes portrait of the Obama administration.
Based on 18 months of reporting, Woodward's 17th book is an intimate, documented examination of how President Obama and the highest profile Republican and Democratic leaders in the United States Congress attempted to restore the American economy and improve the federal government’s fiscal condition over three and one half years.
Drawn from memos, contemporaneous meeting notes, emails and in-depth interviews with the central players, THE PRICE OF POLITICS addresses the key issue of the presidential and congressional campaigns: the condition of the American economy and how and why we got there. Providing verbatim, day-by-day, even hour-by-hour accounts, the book shows what really happened, what drove the debates, negotiations and struggles that define, and will continue to define, the American future.
Bob Woodward is an associate editor at The Washington Post. He has shared in two Pulitzer Prizes, first for the Post’s coverage of the Watergate scandal, and later for coverage of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Simon & Schuster has published all of Woodward's previous 16 books, beginning in 1974 with the groundbreaking All the President's Men, the Watergate reporting story co-authored with Carl Bernstein. All 16 of Woodward's books have been national bestsellers---and 12 of those have been #1 national nonfiction bestsellers. Bob Woodward’s previous books include Obama’s Wars, The War Within, State of Denial, The Secret Man, Plan of Attack, Bush at War, Maestro, Shadow, The Choice, The Agenda, The Commanders, Veil, Wired, The Brethren, The Final Days, and All the President's Men.
