Bill Clinton
- Synopsis
-
This is a narrative account of President Bill Clinton's "epic" first term in the White House. Focusing on key episodes such as the genocide in Rwanda, Hillary Clinton's failed health care reform, the Balkan wars, and Speaker Gingrich's shutdown of the US government, Hamilton (U. of Massachusetts) constructs a picture of a president beset by failure domestically and internationally who learned to face up to his mistakes and refashion himself as "the undisputed leader of his country, at home and abroad. " In his view, Bill Clinton is "the greatest example of self-reinvention as president in office in modern times. " Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc. , Portland, OR (booknews. com)
