In their new book, The Man Who Ran Washington: The Life and Times of James A. Baker III, husband-and-wife journalist/authors Peter Baker and Susan Glasser profile one of DC’s most effective (and possibly last) behind-the-scenes dealmakers. The Wall Street Journal calls the work “an illuminating biographical portrait…one that describes the arc of [Baker’s] career and, along the way, tells us something about how executive power is wielded in the nation’s capital.”

Baker and Glasser recently discussed their book with author/attorney Talmage Boston. Listen to the podcast here. (Read Boston’s thoughts on The Man Who Ran Washington here. And if you’d like an autographed copy of the book? Click here.)
