INTRODUCTION
Oath and Honor: A Memoir and a Warning
by Liz Cheney is a memoir that delves into the tumultuous events surrounding the January 6th, 2021, insurrection at the US Capitol, providing an insider perspective from Cheney's tenure in the Republican Party.
Cheney, a former United States House representative from Wyoming and Vice Chair of the House Select Committee on the January 6th Attack on the US Capitol, offers a firsthand account of these events and discusses the potential resurgence of threats to American democracy led by sympathizers of the 45th President of the United States, Donald Trump.
The book has been described as a gripping account that chronicles the aftermath of the 2020 presidential election, highlighting how Donald Trump and certain Republican officials breached their oath to the Constitution.
Cheney, one of the few Republican officials to openly oppose these efforts, was an eyewitness to the Capitol attack and later played a key role in the Congressional Select Committee investigation into the event.
––––––––
Her memoir recounts this critical period in American history, focusing on those who aided Trump in spreading the lie of a stolen election and those whose actions preserved the constitutional framework, while also exploring the ongoing risks to democracy.
The book has received varied reviews. Some have characterized it as a straightforward and occasionally repetitive account, marked by a tone of strident anger and self-righteousness.
Others have praised Cheney's writing for its orderly and meticulous nature, akin to that of a prosecutor, and have commended the way she fused a memoir with a warning, creating a readable whole that offers a new perspective on the January 6th events.
Cheney's background as a member of Congress from 2017 to 2023, her role as chair of the House Republican Conference, and her stand against the January 6th insurrection, which ultimately led to her defeat in the 2022 primary election, are key aspects of her narrative.
Prior to her congressional career, she was an attorney and national security specialist with experience in Eastern Europe, Russia, Ukraine, and the Middle East, serving in the State Department during the administrations of George W. Bush and George H.W. Bush.
In her book, Cheney contrasts the peaceful transfer of power following the 2000 presidential election with the events of January 6, 2021.
She recalls the cordial interaction between Al Gore and her father, Dick Cheney, during the transition in 2000, highlighting the stark difference in the response to the election outcomes between then and 2021.
Cheney's decision to serve on the Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol, working closely with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, is emphasized as a demonstration of her commitment to the Constitution and the principles of democracy, despite the political risks involved.
Overall, Oath and Honor
is more than just a personal memoir; it is a reflection on a pivotal moment in American history, offering insights into the political and constitutional crises that have shaped recent American politics.
Cheney's narrative is a testament to her experience and perspective on these events, providing readers with a deeper understanding of the challenges faced by the nation's democratic institutions.
