President Carter: The White House Years
Stuart Eizenstat was at Jimmy Carter’s side from the president's political rise in Georgia through four years in the White House. As Chief Domestic Policy Adviser, he was directly involved in all domestic and economic decisions as well as many foreign policy ones during the Carter presidency. Famous for the legal pads he took to every meeting, Eizenstat draws on more than 7500 pages of notes and 350 interviews with all of the major figures of the time, to write the comprehensive history of an underappreciated president―and to provide an intimate view on how the presidency works.
