Errington Thompson (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: September 24, 2004

Currently, there are many books which have been written documenting the issues of the Bush Presidency; A Letter to America draws the reader a clearer more concise picture of major policies of this White House. The author, a trauma surgeon, uses multiple forms of data to analyze and treat an injured patient. He uses those same skills to dissect the policies of Bush's White House. Written in a fluid, crisp style, the author draws on his experience as a surgeon and an American to examine the White House from many angles. He leads one to the conclusion that the only prescription for America is that President Bush needs a vacation.

It has been said that this is the most important presidential election ever, and if that is indeed the case, then this book by Dr. Thompson is the most important book to read prior to the election. This book is extremely well written and flows nicely. You will be astounded by the information that you learn about the Bush Presidency, information that you can use to determine your vote.
Please read this book prior to the election...it will be money and time well spent.
