Bob Woodward’s access to the inner workings of the Bush administration has yielded another book, “The War Within: A Secret White House History 2006-2008.”
Publisher Simon & Shuster is keeping this one under tight wraps, due for a Sept. 8 release, although embargoes are often broken to generate buzz. The co-author of “All the King’s Men” and “The Final Days,” which introduced us to the inner workings of Watergate-scandal era Nixon and figures such as Deepthroat and G. Gordon Liddy (and later revealed the long-held secret identity of Deepthroat), Woodward has been a Washington icon for more than 35 years.
This is Woodward’s fourth investigative book on the Bush administration. The first, a fairly flattering book, “Bush at War” led to the far more critical “State of Denial in 2006.” If trends continue, “The War Within” is bound to turn ugly.
