Signed by author on title page. Very slightly cocked. DJ has slight wear and soiling. Jonathan Alter (born October 6, 1957) is an American journalist, author and television producer who was a columnist and senior editor for Newsweek magazine from 1983 until 2011, and has written three New York Times best-selling books about American presidents. He is a contributing correspondent to NBC News. Alter was one of the first magazine or newspaper reporters to appear on MSNBC. Alter is currently an executive producer on the Amazon Studio's production Alpha House, which stars John Goodman, Mark Consuelos, Clark Johnson, and Matt Malloy. Alter is the author of The Defining Moment: FDR's Hundred Days and the Triumph of Hope, a national bestseller, and Between the Lines: A View Inside American Politics, People and Culture, a collection of twenty years' worth of his columns. Derived from a Kirkus review: The president took terrific pains to involve the Republicans in the health care enterprise, and the Republicans responded by kicking sand in his face. Re-energized, Obama spent much of March 2010 mustering his forces and applying pressure so he could get the reform package passed-putting his presidency, as well as the future of the Democratic Party, in jeopardy. The author portrays Obama as a fighter who sometimes gives the impression that he would rather be doing something else, a peacemaker who isn't afraid to pressure friends and enemies alike to achieve the larger good, but also as a man who thinks things through well in advance. Alter is admiring but not uncritical, rejecting the too-much/too-soon view of some commentators while noting a few missteps. Politics junkies will find this rewarding, particularly in Alter's account of the inner workings of the White House and Capitol Hill.
