Bush Presidency, Policies and Personality Highlighted in Xlibris Title

US President George W. Bush’s recent tour of the Middle East has been met with responses ranging from cautious scrutiny to blatant mockery. Newspaper reports from countries like Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Syria have pitched in opinions on the purpose and efficacy of Bush’s trip to the region. One such report states that many Arabs are concerned about Bush as a leader, calling him “a disaster of a president.”

While these reports zero in on the US head of state’s faults and failures as a leader, the Xlibris book “George Walker Bush: Legacy for Reintegration, Rejuvenation, and Sustainability” does the opposite. Author Bamidele Ojo focuses on the credentials and character traits of the American president in this self-published book, giving readers perhaps a breath of fresh air from the barrage of Bush-bashing comments that come from everywhere.

George Walker Bush – the book – dissects the presidency, policies and personality of the incumbent US chief executive, presenting a comprehensive assessment of the administration of George W. Bush. Ojo highlights Bush’s qualities as a leader by examining his advocacy for human rights, contribution to the war against terrorism, and efforts to facilitate peace between Israel and Palestine. The author goes as far as calling Bush an effective leader, unique among American presidents.

The book might come across as pro-Bush propaganda for some, as it leans heavily towards the positive attributes of President Bush, but that’s where the book derives its appeal. The pro-Bush will certainly embrace the book’s dissertations, which showers praise on the president. The anti-Bush will most probably scrutinize its content to decide which is fact or fiction and what they will believe in or not.

George Walker Bush: Legacy for Reintegration, Rejuvenation, and Sustainability is available on the Amazon and Xlibris online bookstores.
