Bill Clinton : An American Journey
Da: CHARLES BOSSOM, Ely, CAMBS, Regno Unito
Valutazione del venditore 5 su 5 stelle
Hard Cover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. Photographs (illustratore). Dust jacket complete, unclipped. Black cloth with bright gilt titling on spine. No ownership inscription. xxiv, 784 pages clean and tight. In this major biography of Bill Clinton, Nigel Hamilton, author of Whitbread Award-winning MONTY and JFK: RECKLESS YOUTH, tells the amazing story of one of the most charismatic, brilliant and powerful men of our time. Born into a `white trash' family in racially segregated Arkansas, Clinton suffered at the hands of his abusive and alcoholic stepfather. Yet, inspired and empowered by his non-conformist mother and the civil rights movement sweeping America, Clinton would overcome all the odds, winning scholarships to Georgetown University, Oxford and Yale, and progressing rapidly through the ranks of American politics, firstly as Attorney General of Arkansas, then as its youngest ever Governor, at the age of 32. Defeated after only one term, Clinton fights back to become the only Arkansas governor ever to get re-elected after defeat, makes a tormented decision not to run for the presidency in 1988, but finally casts his hat into the ring to win the White House in one of the most surprising political upsets in modern history in 1992. Behind this unique political success story, however, Hamilton also tells the story of the evolution of `Billy Blythe', the boy who was peacemaker in his parents' turbulent marriage and surrogate father-figure to his younger brother, into Bill Clinton: a liberal child of the sixties, a long-haired hippy in Oxford, objector to the Vietnam War and draft dodger. Hamilton also focuses on the relevance of the sexual politics of the era, showing how Clinton's own life was shaped by changing attitudes, especially those towards the new liberalism and free love. In following Clinton's development as a man, this is a book about sexual politics on many levels, and illuminates for the first time how Clinton's sexual and political careers developed hand in hand. Hamilton's fascinating insights into the Clintons' marriage also show how much Clinton owes the successes of his political career to his extraordinary wife, Hillary Rodham Clinton, and his great chief of staff in Arkansas, Betsey Wright. This is the epic account of a roller-coaster career: a true-life drama which neither Bill nor Hillary Clinton could ever dare relate, yet which provides us at last with the means to understand one of the most complex and representative men of our time.
