The Room Where It Happened: A White House Memoir by John R. Bolton
5.0
Having just finished this book, I am compelled to give it a 5* Rating. I am not a student of political science with a Master/PhD in foreign diplomacy. So for me, it was very informative to see an inside view of the foreign relationships and potential impact on our country … as well as our allies. There is a quote I read someplace other than this book that says "Don't just read the easy stuff. You may be entertained by it, but you will never grow from it." This book has severed to broaden my understanding and highlight how much I have yet to learn. For anyone that reads this book, keep a notepad nearby. I found myself taking notes of conflicts in regions I will want to read more about in the future.
In the summary of this book, the author noted the difference between a leader that has a personal policy that guides their decisions vs. decisions that are guided by their impact the leaders personal affairs and political future. Some may not agree with the authors opinion on how things should be handled. But, this book does not leave any room on his stance on a variety of subjects. Well worth the read ….
