"Can the most controversial First Lady in American history remake herself again? The author of the American classic, Passages, illuminates the life changes of a public woman known the world over, but rendered here in her full humanity for the first time. From her childhood with a father who was impossible to please, to her life as the ambitious political wife who faced a public impossible to please, Hillary Clinton has persevered. Now, the first First Lady to have faced down a federal Grand Jury and survived her husband's Presidential impeachment is undergoing a "race for redemption" as she runs on her own for the United States Senate.". "This epic journey of a modern American woman is also the story of a marriage and the drama of a presidency. Why did she choose to abandon her own promising career to help Bill Clinton to become President? Why did she stay with him through repeated betrayals and even through the Monica Lewinsky scandal? Why did she choose to run for the Senate seat of a state in which she has never lived?"--BOOK JACKET.
