Mr. Book just finished The Fall Of The House Of Bush: The Untold Story Of How A Band Of True Believers Seized The Executive Branch, Started The Iraq War And Still Imperils America’s Future, by Craig Unger.

I have read six books by this author, which each one getting either an A or A+.

In The House Of Bush, House Of Saud, Unger exposed the relationship between the Bush family and the Saudis. In this book, the focus is on George W. Bush—the worst president in history prior to Trump.

The beginning parts of the book looked at different themes that would be prominent in the Bush administration, such as the religious right, the neocons, Saddam Hussein and the long US relationship with him and the relationship between Bush 41 and 43. Most of the rest of the book was about how they lied the nation into the Iraq war.

I give this book an A.

Goodreads requires grades on a 1-5 star system. In my personal conversion system, an A equates to 5 stars. (A or A+: 5 stars, B+: 4 stars, B: 3 stars, C: 2 stars, D or F: 1 star).
