"The shocking, breaking news is the biggest Oct surprise of the 21st century" -- Lawrence O'Donnell, MSNBC "Explosive...juicy...so wow" --Jake Tapper, CNN "this should be 'stop everything' stuff"-- Nicolle Wallace, MSNBC "fascinating book ... This is a great book no matter where you are on the political spectrum."-- Neil Cavuto, Fox News Channel "This Time, Bob Woodward Gets It Right: The Watergate journalist has taken a lot of hits--including from me. In his new Biden chronicle, War, he's at his best."-- Franklin Foer, The Atlantic "This is harrowing, riveting stuff...Three weeks after War is published on Oct. 15, voters will provide raw material for the sequel. Though he specializes in real-time suspense, Woodward doesn't write cliffhangers. His impulse -- his talent -- is to impose an arc and a moral on the mess and sprawl of very recent history. This time around, his stated conclusions are unambiguous: 'Donald Trump is not only the wrong man for the presidency,' he writes, 'he is unfit to lead the country.' In contrast, 'Biden and his team will be largely studied in history as an example of steady and purposeful leadership.' Those judgments sound authoritative. They also sound wishful."-- A.O. Scott, New York Times "...the legendary reporter, who, at age 81, has more energy and puts in more shoe leather than reporters half his age."-- Peter Bergen, CNN.com "[ War ] sports all the familiar Woodwardian trademarks--the anonymously sourced accounts of Top Secret meetings, the profanity-laced dialogue (in quotation marks, as if heard by a fly on the wall), the portrait of high politics as a clash of colorful characters: a fun, often compelling first (at times, second) draft of history. Yet, compared with the previous volumes, this latest is in some ways more interesting (if a bit less sensational), and it offers a more (though far from completely) coherent narrative....Woodward uncovers intriguing new facts about the conflicts or, at times, adds color and dimension to stories that others have reported in mere bits and pieces."-- Fred Kaplan, Slate "...reducing the book to scoops trivializes Woodward's ambitions for this sprawling, occasionally blinkered but timely book. If the nuggets were the meal, then the headlines would make the book itself redundant ... a reader who understands these perspectives can adjust for any slants the sources may seek to provide. And even if most of the sources Woodward spoke to for the book are residents or friends of Bidenworld, he is too good a writer and too experienced an observer to let the book's lessons be dictated by his sources ...it is because it thrums with the urgency Woodward must feel of persuading the electorate not to make the same mistake -- or a worse one -- again."-- Paul Musgrave, Washington Post "Bob Woodward's new book War is a sober but alarming must-read"-- Lloyd Green, The Guardian, NAMED A BEST BOOK OF 2024 BY ASSOCIATED PRESS, NEWSWEEK, NPR, AND PROGRESSIVE.ORG "Bob Woodward books have been an election tradition for decades. "War," the latest of his highly sourced Washington insider accounts, made news with its allegations that Donald Trump had been in frequent contact with Russian leader Vladimir Putin..."-- Associated Press "Legendary journalist Woodward compares the Biden and first Trump administrations with behind-the-scenes revelations. A critical read to understand the context of the past four to eight years of American politics, War delves into the psychology of two presidents who held the same office but starkly different views on government and what America is and should be, both at home and abroad."--Peter Aitken, Newsweek "There is a certain wistful quality about reading the latest bestseller that Bob Woodward has written about a U.S. president and national security....[It] also includes a report on Woodward's 1989 interview with Trump, conducted along with colleague Carl Bernstein from the Watergate era.... It reveals a Trump who, at 42, sounds remarkably like the Trump of today."-- Ron Elving , NPR " War by Bob Woodward is full of previously unreported tidbits showcasing the depths of Donald Trump's derelictions. Most of all, it is a harrowing portrait of the scramble by the Biden Administration to stave off World War III. Read it and realize how fragile and complicated the task of promoting peace really is."--Ruth Conniff, Progressive.org

Synopsis
Instant #1 New York Times Bestseller Two-time Pulitzer Prize winner Bob Woodward delivers an eye-opening, behind-the-scenes narrative exploring the intricate dynamics of Ukraine, the Middle East, and the American presidency, offering unparalleled insights into political intrigue and global strategy from one of the most authoritative voices in political journalism today. War is a "harrowing, riveting" ( The New York Times ) account of one of the most tumultuous periods in presidential politics in American history. We see President Joe Biden and his top advisers in tense conversations with Russian president Vladimir Putin, Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky. We also see Donald Trump conducting a shadow presidency and seeking to regain political power ahead of the 2024 elections. With unrivaled, inside-the-room reporting, Woodward shows President Biden's approach to managing the war in Ukraine, the most significant land war in Europe since World War II, and his tortured path to contain the bloody Middle East conflict between Israel and the terrorist groups Hamas and Hezbollah. Woodward reveals the extraordinary complexity and consequence of wartime back-channel diplomacy and decision-making to deter the use of nuclear weapons and a rapid slide into World War III. The raw cage-fight of politics accelerates leading up to the presidential election in 2024, starting between President Biden and Trump, and ending with the unexpected elevation of Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee for president. War provides an unvarnished examination of the vice president as she tries to embrace the Biden legacy and policies while beginning to chart a path of her own as a presidential candidate. Woodward's reporting once again sets the standard for journalism at its most authoritative and illuminating.
