About this product
Product Information
The nuanced, definitive biography of one of the most controversial and widely misunderstood figures of our time: the woman running a historic campaign as the 2016 Democratic presidential nominee--Hillary Rodham Clinton. Drawing on hundreds of interviews with colleagues and friends and with unique access to campaign records, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and bestselling author Carl Bernstein has given us a book that enables us, at last, to address the questions Americans are insistently--even obsessively--asking: Who is she? What is her character? What is her political philosophy? And, what can we expect from Hillary if we elect her President of the United States?

"The most reliable Hillary Clinton biography to date, a must-read." -- The Boston Globe "The best biography of Hillary Rodham Clinton to date." -- Newsday " A remarkably revealing portrait. " -- The Wall Street Journal " A full-scale biography of the former first lady and possible future president. . . . A considerable achievement." --The Christian Science Monitor "Engaging and illuminating; it stands as a model of contemporary political biography." -- The Los Angeles Times "[Bernstein] has not lost his reporter's touch. . . . A Woman in Charge has already refocused serious questions--and supplied new information--about Hillary and Bill Clinton, their past behavior and their current ambitions." -- The Washington Post Book World " Serious, well-researched and fair. . . . Painstaking, sensitive, and elegantly written ." -- The Economist " Bernstein, the famed All the President's Men journalist, is dead solid perfect in his reporting here. . . . The detail and digging on display in A Woman in Charge is stunning." -- The Chicago Sun-Times " Sprightly written . . . . Insightful in its judgments, and studded with factual nuggets that enhance the Hillary saga." -- Salon, "A Woman in Charge. . . stands as a model of contemporary political biography . . . Bernstein has produced an excellent book: thorough, balanced, judicious and deeply reported . . . He offers a three-dimensional portrait of a person with enduring strengths (discipline, tenacity, a sustaining religious faith) and weaknesses (excessive secrecy, a tendency to self-righteousness and a habit of nursing grudges)…Bernstein almost always finds new facts and telling details…[His] account benefits enormously from remarkably candid on-the-record assessments of both Clintons by intimates such as close friend Jim Blair and Betsey Wright, Clinton's gubernatorial chief of staff in Arkansas." Ronald Brownstein,Los Angeles Times "Serious, well-researched and fair…A Woman in Chargeis . . . painstaking, sensitive and elegantly written."The Economist "A remarkably revealing portrait." Byron York,TheWall Street Journal "Carl Bernstein presents a . . . balanced and convincing picture of Mrs. Clinton . . .

Kevin Phillips,TheWashington Post Book World "You could say Bernstein has written the definitive book on Hillary." Lynn Bronikowski,Rocky Mountain News "Bernstein'sA Woman in Chargeis sprightly written, often insightful in its judgments, and studded with factual nuggets that enhance the Hillary saga." Walter Shapiro,Salon.com "This book is really a considerable achievement." Peter Grier,Christian Science Monitor "Those who adore Clinton (and those who despise her) will find anecdotes to savor in Bernstein's account. But the book aims higher, trying to illuminate a person who remains a mystery to millions. To pry open that truth, the author tracked down sources who might shed light on Clinton's character. He spoke to friends, mentors and staffers; he gained access to the papers of the late attorney Diane Blair, one of Clinton's closest friends. The work paid off."Josh Getlin,Los Angeles Times "A Woman in Chargerevisits in revealing and compelling detail the spiritual and fleshly perils that shaped the [Clintons'] journey."Chris Lehmann-Haupt,New York Observer "A layered, thoughtful, critical biography of the woman who, at this writing, seems poised to become the 44th president of the United States…[a] revealing, admiring, often surprising book."Kirkus Reviews(starred) "Eight years in the making, Bernstein's thorough look at Hillary Clinton is both fair and fascinating…the quotes make the book…Through [his] interviews, Bernstein moves the Hillary story to a deeper place."Ilene Cooper,Booklist From the Hardcover edition., "The most reliable Hillary Clinton biography to date, a must-read for anybody closely following the 2008 campaign." --"The Boston Globe" "Engaging and illuminating; it stands as a model of contemporary political biography." --"The Los Angeles Times" "A remarkably revealing portrait." --"The Wall Street Journal" "Serious, well-researched and fair. . . .
