    作者简介：
    　　THE BUSHES tells the Bush family story without any dirty laundry. For example, George W's National Guard unit is called the "Campaign Unit," alluding to the political connections of its members. In THE FAMILY, Kitty Kelley's less flattering biography, the same group is called the "Champagne Unit," suggesting instead a fraternity of wealthy party boys. The reading by Harry Chase is dignified and knowing--in the style of a loving and respectful friend who views the family foibles in a generous and heroic light. The malapropisms of both Georges are seen as endearing frailties while dubious campaign tactics are matters of "steely determination." The Bushes, after all, are only human. This vision of the First Family will appeal to listeners in the majority party.

    内容简介
    Like Kevin Phillips in his bestselling American Dynasty, the Schweizers trace the history of the Bush family back to progenitors George Herbert Walker and Samuel P. Bush. It's easy to spot both continuity and change in four generations of prominent Bushes. Of Prescott Bush's career in business, we're told, "Consensus and camaraderie forged behind closed doors suited him perfectly," a description that fits his grandson's style in the White House. And many of the family's connections span decades: Back in 1928, a firm headed by Prescott Bush purchased Dresser Industriesâ?"which today is a subsidiary of Halliburton. However, the family's politics have shifted rightward like those of their party: Prescott Bush lost his first election after being "smeared" as an advocate of birth control, and later he became one of the first senators to denounce Joseph McCarthyâ?"a bold gesture of moderation. Unlike Phillips, the Schweizers try hard to put a positive spin on the family saga. They insist that George H.W. Bush disliked negative campaigning, without mentioning the infamous Willie Horton ad that helped him win the 1988 election. When recounting the Florida election crisis of 2000, they find it "troublesome" that Carol Roberts, who oversaw the Palm Beach recount, was a Gore supporter, but fail to note that election supervisor Katherine Harris helped run Bush's Florida campaign. Thus, while this group portrait usefully gathers much family lore in a single, accessible source, the unbiased, authoritative story of the dynasty remains to be written.
