She is one of the most influential and recognizable figures in our country, perhaps the single most divisive individual in our political landscape. She is the subject of both hagiography and vitriolic smear jobs. Although dozens of books have been written about her, none of them have come close to uncovering the real Hillary Rodham Clinton.
|
| Now, Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times reporters Jeff Gerth and Don Van Natta deliver the first comprehensive portrait of the most fascinating and controversial woman in American politics. Drawing upon documents and sources that no other reporters have ever accessed, Gerth and Van Natta will forever change the way readers think about Hillary. |
