Former Chief of Staff to President George H.W. Bush and New York Times bestselling author of The Man I Knew, Jean Becker shares touching and pivotal life lessons from a leader that left a mark on people's hearts and souls.

As America heads into what promises to be a tumultuous 2024 presidential election year, Character Matters will be a good reminder of the importance of character when defining true leadership. Colleagues, friends, and family will share their often very personal stories of what they learned from watching and listening to President Bush, including former United States Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice; Secretary of State James A. Baker; stand-up comedian Dana Carvey; "Queen of Country" star Reba McEntire; American columnist for The New York Times Maureen Dowd; American novelist Brad Meltzer; presidential biographer Jon Meacham; former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom John Major; former Prime Minister of Canada Brian Mulroney; Secretary of Defense Robert Gates; the Oak Ridge Boys and best-selling author Christopher Buckley; and of course his grandchildren. Character Matters will illustrate how George Bush never stopped showing us the way to lead by example.

Audiobook is read by Jean Becker, George Dvorsky, Allan Robertson, Cynthia Barrett, James Edward Thomas, Widdi Turner, Jamie Renell, and Barbara Benjamin-Creel with selections read by Secretary of State James Baker, Vice President Dan Quayle, and Presidential Historian Jon Meacham.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

I really enjoyed this book, what a life! My only retraction word be the narrators very nasally voice, her tone wasn't the greatest either. Thankfully she doesn't speak too often.

Excellent book!

Life was different 30 years ago. It is good to pause and remember what other people were like and what we were like at that time.

This is an excellent compilation that deserves a read/listen.

Looking forward to giving it to some high schoolers so they can experience what shaped many people they think they know.

A Good Time to Pause and Reflect Before Moving Ahead

I have always admired George H. W. Bush, primarily (but not solely) for his unwavering class. I thought I knew everything about his exceptional kindness, but this book taught me so much more about this truly fine man. Thank you, Jean Becker, for sharing these inspirational and moving memories. I could listen to them forever.

I couldn't love this more

this side of Abraham Lincoln. If only more leaders held themselves to his high standards.
And did so their whole life as he did.
Starting at 18, President Bush stood up and said, “Here I am, send me.”

The Most Honorable President…

The President's care for others, excellent leadership, and goodness. A great president. Mrs. Becker's excellent work, juggling of people and calendars, working until the job was done. All along not holding back with her words maybe a few times with the president. Love Jean Becker's books and enjoy so much her visits to the Bush 41 Library.

Character Counts!!!!

At a time when politics and politicians in the USA are more divided than ever, this book is the breath of fresh air the country needs. This world desperately needs more leaders like GHWB!

I really didn’t know what to expect when I started to listen to this book. It turned out to be an incredible reflection of a humble leader who we all should try to emulate today. What a fantastic way to pay tribute to an American treasure. The book is well put together and is a must listen for citizens who care about others and our country from both sides of the political fence. Thanks to Jean Becker for putting this book together and sharing the story more deeply about this wonderful man, 41.
