Part of the America’s Great Political Families series, this entry about the Bush family does a solid job of introducing a clan that goes back in American politics four generations. The book begins on election night 1994. Jeb, running for governor of Florida, was expected to win, while George, hoping to be elected Texas’ governor, was expected to lose. The reverse happened, changing the political dynamic in the Republican Party, the country, and Bush family relations. Mooney then profiles the Bush political dynasty, beginning with Senator Prescott Bush; his son and president, George Herbert Walker; his sons President George and presidential contender Jeb; and Jeb’s son, George P., who already holds political office. Each profile is detailed and cogently written with sidebars providing needed extra information for topics like the Iran-Contra affair and the Iraq surge. An attractive design and many photos are a plus. This ends with Jeb still in contention for the 2016 nomination, but even kids will know how that turned out.
