He was the man who defied all odds-a political survivor rising from obscurity to become Pakistan's most enigmatic and possibly most controversial president. While many predicted the party founded by his father-in-law to factionalise if not fade away after the assassination of his wife, Benazir Bhutto, Zardari took the reins of the party at its most difficult time, united it and went on to become president of Pakistan twice. But what secrets lay behind Asif Ali Zardari's tumultuous rule?

Witness the fallout of the Memogate scandal, the shadow of Osama bin Laden's raid and the relentless manoeuvring that kept democracy afloat in a sea of conspiracies. Learn how Zardari steered Pakistan through impossible odds, from navigating U.S. diplomacy amidst a mistrusting military to laying the groundwork for historic reforms like the 18th Constitutional Amendment.
But this is not a tale of unblemished heroism. Babar pulls no punches. exploring Zardari's moments of pragmatism and paradox, his controversial alliances and his unyielding resolve to rewrite the rules of power. With personal anecdotes, untold stories and a front-row seat to history, this memoir doesn't just reveal the man behind the headlines-it unveils the tectonic shifts that defined a presidency and a nation.
"The Zardari Presidency-Now It Must Be Told is an insider's account of the momentous events during 2008-13; the deep state breathing down the president's neck; the cat and mouse games played, the judges obsessed with power and upending democratic structures, troops of 111 Brigade thudding in the presidency at night to browbeat a defiant Zardari, a half-baked ambitious overture for peace with India falling apart, scapegoating a civilian president for the discovery of Osama Bin Laden in a military cantonment, pushing Zardari to the brink and a captivating account of Zardari's personal traits and paradoxes makes it unputdownable"
