1 online resource, \"Zenith: In the White House with George H.W. Bush is the third in Ambassador Untermeyer's series of books based on his personal journals compiled during his tenure in the service of George H.W. Bush, first as vice president, then as president. The present work begins with Bush's election in November 1988 and concludes with Untermeyer's service as director of the Voice of America, from 1991 until Bush's defeat by Clinton in 1992. Filled with the author's personal observations and commentary on White House events, personalities, and issues, Zenith is written largely from Untermeyer's perspective as President Bush's director of personnel, a position that placed him squarely at the center of the politically charged process of making recommendations on some 3,500 federal appointments.\"--ECIP Data View, Summary, Includes bibliographical references and index, Preface: A strange allure -- The project (April-November 1988) -- The turkey box -- A fateful offer -- The voters decide -- The transition (November 1988-January 1989) -- The frenzy before the storm -- The White House (January 1989-August 1991) -- Beset and besieged -- The first buzzards of spring -- I have some interest in her -- Upside down in the Potomac -- Secret mission to China -- Let them squeeze themselves -- The case of the missing earrings -- Himalayan honeymoon -- Wars at home and abroad -- \"Oh, really?\" -- They can get you for goin' to church on Sunday -- The voice (August 1991-January 1993) -- One wonderful job -- The chocolate island -- Radio wars -- The voters decide again -- The fighting fowl fatale -- Epilogue: Two flights to Houston, Print version record and CIP data provided by publisher
