W leaves White House for final timeFOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – New Bush memoir
Bush was a Clown Prince
The question gnawed at John-Paul Leonard. Leonard is the publisher of Progressive Press in Joshua Tree, Calif.
He enlisted Maine newspaper reporter Ted Cohen, who discovered that Bush had once been arrested on a drunken-driving charge. Cohen wrote the book that Bush fanatics will enjoy. "What clinched it for me was that Ted was fired for reporting the story,” Leonard said.
Progressive Press has released “Clown Prince,” available now!
The imaginative memoir portrays the young George W. Bush as a fun-loving teenage prankster, and, later, a towel-snapping frat boy at an Ivy League college. His famous father got him out of the draft. He got elected to the highest office in the world. Stranger than fiction.
“Who Elected That Bush Dude Anyway” is the book’s subtitle.
The Bush years are over. “We decided to take a look back,” Leonard said. “How did this guy ever get to where he got? Our sub-title says it all.”
In “Clown Prince,” Cohen peels back the onion on Bush’s dysfunctional family. “The book is more than a third-person’s exposition on what life must have been like in the Bush household,” Cohen said. “Rather, it highlights what life was like behind the scenes. This is a very famous and driven family.”
The book uses detailed conversations and copious quotations. “You won’t be able to put it down,” Cohen said. "The hottest part is when W confronts his father about 41's denied affair with Jennifer Fitzgerald."
Cohen portrays the elder Bush as a man focused on career. It was all politics. Barbara Bush was a single parent in her husband’s constant and unnerving absences. She was trying to raise their first child, George W. Bush.
