Hillary Rodham Clinton is known to hundreds of millions of people around the world. Yet few beyond her close friends and family have ever heard her account of her extraordinary journey. She writes with candor, humor and passion about her upbringing in suburban, middle-class America in the 1950s and her transformation from Goldwater Girl to student activist to controversial First Lady. Living History is her revealing memoir of life through the White House years. It is also her chronicle of living history with Bill Clinton, a thirty-year adventure in love and politics that survives personal betrayal, relentless partisan investigations and constant public scrutiny.

Hillary Rodham Clinton came of age during a time of tumultuous social and political change in America. Like many women of her generation, she grew up with choices and opportunities unknown to her mother or grandmother. She charted her own course through unexplored terrain -- responding to the changing times and her own internal compass -- and became an emblem for some and a lightning rod for others. Wife, mother, lawyer, advocate and international icon, she has lived through America's great political wars, from Watergate to Whitewater.

The only First Lady to play a major role in shaping domestic legislation, Hillary Rodham Clinton traveled tirelessly around the country to champion health care, expand economic and educational opportunity and promote the needs of children and families, and she crisscrossed the globe on behalf of women's rights, human rights and democracy. She redefined the position of First Lady and helped save the presidency from an unconstitutional, politically motivated impeachment. Intimate, powerful and inspiring, Living History captures the essence of one of the most remarkable women of our time and the challenging process by which she came to define herself and find her own voice -- as a woman and as a formidable figure in American politics.

From AudioFile:
En este audiolibro Hillary Rodham Clinton habla francamente sobre los adversarios que intentaron destruir a ella y su esposo, el presidente de entonces Bill Clinton, a través de acusaciones absurdas e investigaciones inútiles durante sus ocho años en la Casa Blanca. Usando un estilo de escribir campechano pero también inteligente, Clinton cuenta su enfado cuando aprendió lo de Mónica Lewinsky y su consternación con su intento de reformar las finanzas del sistema nacional de salud. El ritmo rápido de la narradora Anna Silvetti no empareja con la manera de Clinton para tejer apasionadamente el camino único de su vida. Aun así, este audiolibro ofrece una vista íntima dentro de los acontecimientos que últimamente dirigieron la evolución de este individuo a ser una figura poderosa y políticamente potente. L.R.P., Trans. [ENGLISH TRANSLATION]--Hillary Rodham Clinton speaks frankly about adversaries who were bent on destroying her and her husband, Bill Clinton, through absurd accusations and fruitless investigations during their eight years in the White House. In a folksy but intelligent writing style, Clinton recounts her anger when she learned about Monica Lewinsky and her dismay over her failed attempt to reform the healthcare finance system. Narrator Anna Silvetti's hurried pace does not match Clinton's passionate weaving of her unique life journey. Still, this audiobook offers intimate insights into events that propelled Clinton's evolution as a powerful woman and political heavyweight. K.P. © AudioFile 2010, Portland, Maine
