“It’s amazing! I hope to see it on the big screen someday. It’s an incredible story, everybody should read it…Go buy it. Go read it!”–Nicolle Wallace, anchor MSNBC / Deadline Whitehouse“Stories from the Situation Room’s colorful history run the gamut from heroic to silly… also tales that sound like they could be something out of a sitcom.”–New York Post Book Review“The book is terrific. It is terrific! And I love that you [George] are narrating it.”–Whoopi Goldberg, co-anchor ABC / The View“This is just full of extraordinary new reporting…Lets us in a room most Americans will never see.”–Willie Geist, co-anchor MSNBC / Morning Joe“What keeps readers engaged in Stephanopoulos’ history isn’t any behind the scenes schematics or technology… it’s the stories Stephanopoulos and Lisa Dickey share of the normally nameless and faceless public servants, the duty officers who have staffed the center since its inception.”–Associated Press Book Review“Stephanopoulos takes readers behind the scenes of a legendary White House location in this sprightly history…Presidential history buffs will find much of interest here.”–Publishers Weekly“Takes the reader on a thrilling tour of this little known but crucial facet of the United States government…a must-read for history and political wonks.”–Booklist
