New York: Center Street, 2016. First Edition [stated]. Third printing [Stated]. Hardcover. xiii, [3], 285, [1] pages. Footnotes. In this runaway #1 New York Times bestseller, former secret service officer Gary Byrne, who was posted directly outside President Clinton's oval office, reveals what he observed of Hillary Clinton's character and the culture inside the White House while protecting the First Family in Crisis of Character. The book rose to number two on the Amazon bestsellers list within a few days of its release. Soon after publication, the book debuted atop the New York Times Non-Fiction best seller list, and stayed on top during its second through fifth weeks. The book appeared as number one on the Publishers Weekly list. Byrne was a member of the uniformed division of the Secret Service during the Clinton administration in the 1990s. He was stationed outside the door of the Oval Office and was able to closely observe Bill and Hillary Clinton. His experiences showed him that the Clintons were unfit for high office. Byrne entered the Secret Service in 1991. He admired President George H. W. Bush, who had served in the military as a naval aviator. Bush had a sense of easy camaraderie with the law enforcement personnel who worked to protect him. Byrne also had a good relationship with first lady Barbara Bush, who would sometimes gently tease him. As a result of 9/11, airport and airplane security was vastly increased. Many Secret Service agents transferred to become air marshals protecting domestic flights. Byrne became more and more disgusted with the poor management of the Secret Service. In 2003, he joined many of his fellow agents and became an air marshal. More
