Rhodes was not your typical presidential confidant, and this is not your typical White House memoir. Now he tells the full story of his partnership-and, ultimately, friendship-with a man who also happened to be a historic president of the United States. He started every morning in the Oval Office with the Presidents Daily Briefing, traveled the world with Obama, and was at the center of some of the most consequential and controversial moments of the presidency. The closest view of Obama were likely to get until he publishes his own memoir.-George Packer, The New Yorker NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE GUARDIAN For nearly ten years, Ben Rhodes saw almost everything that happened at the center of the Obama administration-first as a speechwriter, then as deputy national security advisor, and finally as a multipurpose aide and close collaborator.
