Ben Rhodes, who served as a foreign policy adviser and speechwriter for Barack Obama, presents a compelling memoir that captures the essence of the president he worked with—intelligent, amiable, and principled. This narrative is a coming-of-age story that transitions from idealism to realism, filled with anecdotes that illuminate rather than scandalize. Even Donald Trump is approached with a sense of horrified amazement rather than vitriol. Rhodes remains a charming and humble guide through an unprecedented presidency, managing to retain his idealism in a cynical political climate. His memoir stands out for its humane and honorable portrayal of events. Rhodes offers a unique perspective on Obama’s presidency, providing insight into the tightly sealed inner workings of the White House during those eight years. The book opens and closes with Obama’s reaction to the election of Donald Trump, while detailing significant world events in an intimate and engaging manner. Rhodes chronicles the evolution of Obama’s foreign policy decisions, reflecting on the challenges faced as idealism confronted harsh realities. This memoir is a captivating account of Rhodes's journey from an idealistic staffer to a close friend and advisor to the president, making it a riveting read for both cynics and believers alike. Insightful and moving, it serves as an essential record of a transformative era.
