This is an auction for IN THE LINE OF FIRE: A MEMOIR by Pervez Musharraf.

Musharraf served as the tenth President of Pakistan from 2001 until 2008. On 31 March 2014 he was charged with treason for implementing emergency rule and suspending the constitution in 2007.

Amazon.com review:

“According to Time magazine, Pakistan's President Pervez Musharraf held "the world's most dangerous job." He twice came within inches of assassination. His forces caught more than 670 members of al Qaeda in the mountains and cities, yet many others remained at large and active, including Osama bin Laden and Ayman Al Zawahiri. Long locked in a deadly embrace with its nuclear neighbour India, Pakistan has come close to full-scale war on two occasions since it first exploded a nuclear bomb in 1998. As President Musharraf struggled for the security and political future of his nation, the stakes could not have been higher for the world at large. It is unprecedented for a sitting head of state to write a memoir as revelatory, detailed, and gripping as In the Line of Fire. He tells the sad story of Pakistan's experience with democracy and what he tried to do make it workable.”
