[A] warm and compelling introduction to the personal and professional lives of our forty-first president. Readers young and old will find themselves wanting to know more about this great American leader.”

—David B. Jones

Chief Executive Officer

George H. W. Bush Presidential Library Foundation

George H. W. Bush: A Point of Light covers the bold and wide-ranging life of a modest man who was, in addition to forty-first president of the United States:

– a Phi Beta Kappa athlete

– a naval aviator war hero

– a team player with little ego, yet fiercely competitive

– a retired citizen still parachuting from airplanes at the age of 90

After leaving his sedate Connecticut community for adventure in the Texas oil business, George Bush turned his attention to politics. He became a stalwart member of the Republican party, though he remained a low-keyed bipartisan. Thereafter, he became ambassador to the UN, and then CIA director. As president, he oversaw Operation Desert Storm, as well as the end of the Cold War.

More than a president, George Bush is a great man, and the lessons to be learned from his story can guide emerging adults into lives of outstanding character.
