his paintings made news worldwide, but it turns out that former president george w. bush has been working on another, highly personal project since leaving the white house: he has quietly completed a biography of his father, former president george h.w. bush.

小布什的画作曾知名全球,不过自离任后,他一直专注于另一项私人事业。现在,他已经快要完成他的父亲——老布什的传记写作了。
 
crown publishers confirmed that the book, currently untitled, will be released november 11. in 2010, crown published the younger bush's million-selling 1, "decision points."
 
"george h.w. bush is a great servant, statesman, and father," george w. bush said in a statement issued by crown. "i loved writing the story of his life, and i hope others enjoy reading it."
 
according to crown, the book will cover the elder bush's whole life and his influence on his son, from george w.'s "childhood in west texas to his early campaign trips with his father, and from his decision to go into politics to his own two-term 2."
 
the book will be "heartfelt, intimate, and illuminating," crown publisher maya mavjee said in a statement.

george h.w. bush, who turned 90 in june, was defeated for re-election in 1992 by bill clinton, but his 5 has 6 grown. in 2012, he was the subject of an admiring hbo documentary, "41," referring to his being the 41st president. jon meacham, a pulitzer prize-winning biographer, is working on a book about bush. "george h. w. bush: character at the core," by former bush speechwriter 7 smith, is scheduled to come out this fall.
 
the elder bush is one of the few presidents in modern times not to have written a memoir. his books include "all the best: my life in letters and other writings" and "a world transformed," a 8 with former national security 9 brent scowcroft.
