Description: From the moment he set foot on it, Karl Rove has rocked America's ì political stage. He ran the national College Republicans at ì twenty-two, and turned a Texas dominated by Democrats into a ì bastion for Republicans. He launched George W. Bush to national ì renown by unseating a popular Democratic governor, and then ì orchestrated a GOP White House win at a time when voters had ì little reason to throw out the incumbent party. For engineering ì victory after unlikely victory, Rove became known as "the ì Architect."

Because of his success, Rove has been attacked his entire ì career, accused of everything from campaign chicanery to ì ideological divisiveness. In this frank memoir, Rove responds to ì critics, passionately articulates his political philosophy, and ì defends the choices he made on the campaign trail and in the ì White House. In the course of putting the record straight, Rove ì takes on Democratic leaders like Harry Reid and Tom Daschle who ì acted cynically or deviously behind closed doors, and even ì Republicans who lacked backbone at crucial moments.
