Based on their previous book. I am not surprised at the excerpt - I mean I've read enough biographies of LBJ to JFK to FDR to Eisenhower ....politicians have their moments, people of power - great people - have a side to them that just comes with the territory. Based on the excerpt I am glad she didn't speak out against trade - she would have been wrong if she did. The zeitgeist of last year was such that a pragmatist would be demonized no matter what. There was a lot out of her control and quite a bit in her control as well. I just find it curious how quickly the authors came out with this book. Their last effort was Hillarys stint as sec of state and its a weighty and lengthy read. Will have to wait and see how this is received.
