Hayes"Review"Hayes chooses to provide what is essentially a chronological account of Cheney's life. The strength of this approach is that it places him in a context--and a rich context at that." "[T]he most serious effort yet to understand the Cheney enigma....[A] detailed and sympathetic portrait [that is] not entirely uncritical.." Publisher's noteDiscusses the impact of Paul Wolfowitz on American foreign policy, tracing his rise to a U.S. ambassador, his radical ideas about pre-emption and the westernization of the Middle East, and his direct influence on the Bush Doctrine. AnnotationThis generally favorable biography of Vice-President Dick Cheney benefits from the unusual access granted to the author, including face-to-face interviews. Stephen Hayes provides a comprehensive, and enlightening, account of Cheney's long career in public service, as he examines the evolution of his positions and the people who helped his rise, especially Donald Rumsfeld. Hayes notes the importance Cheney places on experience, especially in a time of crisis. Acknowledging Cheney's many critics, Hayes nevertheless sees him as a realist who was prepared for his post-9/11 role, and he respects Cheney for his efforts to strengthen the executive branch of government and in particular, the office of the president.
