Now with a new chapter on the chaos in the Trump administration, the first in-depth, behind-the-scenes look at the White House Chiefs of Staff, whose actions—and inactions—have defined the course of our country. What do Dick Cheney and Rahm Emanuel have in common? Aside from polarizing personalities, both served as chief of staff to the president of the United States—as did Donald Rumsfeld, Leon Panetta, and a relative handful of others. The chiefs of staff, often referred to as "the gatekeepers," wield tremendous power in Washington and beyond; they decide who is allowed to see the president, negotiate with Congress to push POTUS's agenda, and—most crucially—enjoy unparalleled access to the leader of the free world. Each chief can make or break an administration, and each president reveals himself by the chief he picks.  Through extensive, intimate interviews with all seventeen living chiefs and two former presidents, award-winning journalist and producer Chris Whipple pulls back the curtain on this unique fraternity. In doing so, he revises our understanding of presidential history, showing us how James Baker’s expert managing of the White House, the press, and Capitol Hill paved the way for the Reagan Revolution—and, conversely, how Watergate, the Iraq War, and even the bungled Obamacare rollout might have been prevented by a more effective chief.  Filled with shrewd analysis and never-before-reported details, The Gatekeepers offers an essential portrait of the toughest job in Washington.

This is a really good overview of the role a chief of staff plays in making a successful presidency - or in leaving a presidency exposed to mistakes of policy and politics that can damage the executive's ability to get things done.Whipple gives brief vignettes of the various Chiefs from Nixon's H.R. Haldeman through Obama's Dennis McDonough (with more or less emphasis given the impact each had on the functioning of the White House). He catalogues their successes and failures and through the overview, one comes away with a good idea of what makes success and what behaviors and actions (or lack thereof) serves an executive poorly. Those interested in political history, politics or recent history will find this fascinating. I think anyone who is tasked as a chief-of-staff, or even a number-two the chief executive of a large organization that must deal with external as well as internal interests would be able to glean a lot of good lessons from Whipple's work.This book is short as are most of the chapters, but the author does an excellent job of focusing on the key aspects of Chiefs and their work at managing the White House and presidency. While this book could have been titled "James A. Baker and All the Rest," there are a number of Chiefs from both parties who Whipple holds up as great examples of how the enterprise can work well. Equally helpful are some who missed the mark and mishandled their stewardship of this important post.
