I recommend Fighting Back. Bill Sammon really skewers the Washington press corps in that book, and he has a lot of background on what happened on September 11.

Also, it is better written and easier to follow. And no digs on the cabinet.

So true, Miss Marple! I had a hard time putting down Fighting Back. Sammons' writing style is smoother and warmer than Woodward's, and very engaging.

At the beginning of Bush at War, I found it interesting and positive. As I worked my way through it, however, it got tedious and I found myself getting bogged down with both the detail, and the erratic jumping from meeting to meeting.

I still think that the average American reading it will have a very positive impression of the strength and character of our President, though, and that's a good thing.

Pippin, that picture of Frodo is now my wallpaper as well!
