Critic reviews

"Jaw-dropping . . . It reads like a thriller." —Nicholas D. Kristof, The New York Times

"Angler could well turn out to be the most revealing account of Cheney's activities as vice president that ever gets written." —James Mann, The Washington Post

"[A] forceful new study ... connecting the dots to give the reader a visceral understanding of just how Mr. Cheney maneuvered...." —Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times

"A triumph of reporting... Gellman's narrative deserves to be read in full in all its dismaying detail." —Sam Tanenhaus, The New Republic
