ReviewsAdvance praise for First Son "First Son is one of those very rare nonfiction books that captures the trifecta--wonderfully readable, impeccably reported, and revealing. Bill Minutaglio has captured that insane and marvelous state of mind called Texas. He has also captured the ups and downs of what it is like to grow up in the shadow of a very, very famous father. Surely an important political book on the man who may well be our next president, but also a personal and poignant one." --Buzz Bissinger, author ofFriday Night LightsandA Prayer for the City "First Son, the first biography of George W. Bush, is thorough, colorful, revealing, and compelling--certain to serve as an essential political bible for the 2000 presidential campaign." --David Maraniss,Washington Postreporter and author ofFirst in His Class "First Son is an intriguing and illuminating portrait of the way an American family has wielded power and influence in business and politics for three generations. Any family--nuclear or otherwise--that wants to learn how the game is really played should study the Bush dynasty." --Mario Puzo, author ofThe GodfatherandThe Last Don, Advance praise for First Son "First Son is one of those very rare nonfiction books that captures the trifecta--wonderfully readable, impeccably reported, and revealing.
