A Woman in Charge – The Life of Hillary Rodham Clinton Ajánlat

Carl Bernstein’s stunning portrait of Hillary Rodham Clinton shows the true trajectory of an astonishing life and career. From a staunchly Republican household and apparently idyllic Midwestern girlhood – her dísciplinarian father here revealed as harsher than she has acknowledged – we see the shaping of a brilliant girl whose curiosity was fuelled by dedicated teachers, by exposure to Martin Luther King Jr., by the ferment of the I960s, and, above all, by a desire to change the world. During her student years, as a Republican turned Democrat, Hillary thrived in the new sky’s-the-limit freedom for women. She was already perceived as a spokeswoman for her generation, her commencement speech celebrated in Life magazme. Then, at Yale Law School, she met and fell in love wkh Bill Clinton, cancelling her own dreams to tie her fortunes to his.
