This book is a must read for any fan of HW。 I received an ARC of this book and 5 pages in placed a preorder for the book to share with family and friends。 I wouldn’t recommend it if you’re looking for a tell all exposing the former President， or if you have a preconceived disdain for him。 Jean Becker states at the beginning that this book is not a tell all， but instead is essentially her love letter to the incredible life she witnessed spending so much time with the Bush family。 She did not disa This book is a must read for any fan of HW。 I received an ARC of this book and 5 pages in placed a preorder for the book to share with family and friends。 I wouldn’t recommend it if you’re looking for a tell all exposing the former President， or if you have a preconceived disdain for him。 Jean Becker states at the beginning that this book is not a tell all， but instead is essentially her love letter to the incredible life she witnessed spending so much time with the Bush family。 She did not disappoint at all。 Becker shared the soft and loving side of HW through personal stories， a number of beautiful letters to his family and friends， and the eulogies shared at his funeral service。 This book took me longer than expected to read， but it was because I savored every moment。 I can’t recommend this book enough。 Becker also is an eloquent writer and the flow of the book kept me hooked。 。。。more

I absolutely loved this look into the post-presidency years of George H W Bush。 I loved getting to read about his attitude on life。 I think Jean Becker is an excellent writer and you can tell how much she admired her former boss。 I can’t wait to buy this when it is published，

This book is exactly what I'd been looking for to cover the personality of George HW Bush。 Every single thing I've read about him， and Barbara， describe them as wonderful people。 This book brings in some anecdotes， but also letters from former President Bush， and insight into the man behind the presidency。 I read through this like fiction， and it made me sad that we no longer have him on earth。 Thank you Jean Becker for this great book。 Thank you to NetGalley and Twelve Books for an e-ARC of thi This book is exactly what I'd been looking for to cover the personality of George HW Bush。 Every single thing I've read about him， and Barbara， describe them as wonderful people。 This book brings in some anecdotes， but also letters from former President Bush， and insight into the man behind the presidency。 I read through this like fiction， and it made me sad that we no longer have him on earth。 Thank you Jean Becker for this great book。 Thank you to NetGalley and Twelve Books for an e-ARC of this title in exchange for my honest review。 。。。more
