Collects twenty years' worth of Clinton-based columns, tracing the author's transformation from Clinton supporter to Clinton critic
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Greenberg, editorial page editor of the Arkansas Democrat Gazette, is the third Arkansas journalist (following Meredith Oakley, On the Make, LJ 7/94, and John Brummett, Highwire, LJ 9/15/94) to present a thought-provoking, critical account of Clinton's prepresidential years. The coiner of the "slick Willie" nickname brings together topically arranged columns, with helpful introductory notes, that comment on Clinton's failures and successes as governor as well as president, his place in Arkansas politics, and his character. All too frequently, Clinton is unfavorably compared with Orville Faubus, the segregationist former governor. Greenberg is most eloquent describing the "clintonized culture" of the 1990s?a society defined by ambition without purpose, with an emphasis on sentimentality, political expediency, and self- absorption. For large collections and Arkansas public libraries.?Karl Helicher, Upper Merion Twp. Lib., King of Prussia, Pa
