Inside the Mind of General Petraeus

Jamie Weinstein at the Daily Caller interviews Paula Broadwell, the author of a new book on General David Petraeus, who now serves as the director of the CIA.

History will remember retired Army General David Petraeus, now director of the Central Intelligence Agency, as “the model soldier-scholar-diplomat,” argues Paula Broadwell, author of the recently released “All In: The Education of General David Petraeus.”

He was “the top-rated soldier in every one of his assignments over nearly 40 years,” Broadwell said in an interview with The Daily Caller.

“It clearly was not a coincidence or accident that he was selected for six straight commands as a general officer, five of them in combat.”

But his battlefield success was matched by his intellectual achievements, she argues.
