the man who made Washington work

The Man Who Made Washington Work is the story of a remarkable politician and statesman who represents a time when a divided Congress got things done, and when presidents and politicians worked together. James A. Baker III, now 84, helped get three presidents elected, served in top posts for two of them, and was a central player in some of the most momentous events of the late 20th century. With candid testimony from Baker, and first-hand accounts from former presidents Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter, and George Bush Sr, former Secretaries of State Condoleezza Rice and Henry Kissinger, and former Vice President Dick Cheney, as well as a host of other Washington insiders, journalists, and historians, The Man Who Made Washington Work is an eye-opening behind-the-scenes story of power, persuasion, and diplomacy at the highest levels
