The Man Who Ran Washington by Peter Baker
The Life and Legacy of James A. Baker III
An engaging political biography tracing James A. Baker III’s rise from Texas lawyer to the central power broker of late-20th-century Washington, showing how his calm procedural mastery and talent for coalition-building let him run the West Wing and major policy initiatives—shaping tax and budget deals, diplomacy at the end of the Cold War, and the Gulf War—while revealing the personal style and institutional instincts that made him indispensable yet elusive.
