Description

From one of television's most experienced, best-liked journalists comes up behind-the-scenes account of the news as you've never seen it before. Bob Schieffer started his reporting career in Texas when he was barely old enough to buy a beer, joined CBS news in 1969, and became one of the few correspondents ever to have covered all four major Washington beats: the White House, the Pentagon, the State Department, and Capitol Hill. Over the past four decades, he's seen it all, but this is no conventional memoir, no standard walk over familiar ground. These are the after-hours tales only his colleagues know. - Jacket flap.
