  The story of President Joe Biden's groundbreaking four years in the White House: his campaign, his presidency, his decision to run again - and to withdrawIn his candid and revealing memoir, Joe Biden reflects on his time as president: the challenges, triumphs, sorrows, and accomplishments that marked his administration amid one of the most tumultuous eras in American history. Biden took the oath of office on the steps of the U.S. Capitol, where - just days earlier - rioters had stormed the halls and threatened the very foundation of our democracy. He did so while looking out at a field of flags where crowds should have been, except that our nation was in the throes of a pandemic that kept people from gathering. With the nation still reeling from the January 6 assault, shattered by an inept response to a historic pandemic, and paralyzed by a steep recession, the mandate before him was clear but daunting: to heal a divided country, restore the integrity of its frayed institutions, and prove to a skeptical public that the world's greatest democracy could still deliver for its people. Now Biden tells the story of a historically eventful presidency. With his hallmark grit and decades of hard-won institutional wisdom, he led an administration that engineered the most sweeping domestic agenda in generations. From orchestrating a historic multibillion-dollar infrastructure renaissance and reviving American manufacturing to passing landmark legislation lowering healthcare costs and tackling the climate crisis, Biden details how he took risks, made gambles, and defied the pundits to build an economy, in his words, "from the middle out and the bottom up."On the world stage, Biden recounts the urgent high-stakes diplomacy required to rebuild America's traditional alliances in the face of new threats. He shares first-person accounts of standing steadfast against authoritarian aggression, modernizing NATO, and leading the global coalition to defend Ukraine in its darkest hours. And for the first time, he reveals the deeply agonizing calculation behind his decision in the summer of 2024 to step aside from the presidential race and to put his party and the nation before his personal ambitions. Moving, historic, and filled with the unyielding optimism that has defined Joe Biden's fifty years of public service, Promise Me, America is a powerful testament to resilience, to the power of personal relationships in service of political progress, and to a leader who put country above all else.
