Hillary Rodham Clinton is a fascinating and talented author. As she tells the story of her romance with Bill and their years in politics one becomes so wrapped in the details. She includes wonderful little stories about themselves, herself, and their political experiences. The tale about how often Bill proposed before Hillary accepted is a charming glimpse of their love for each other. And, the Boris Yeltsin tales were funnnny! I loved them.
How naive the Clintons were! The political sharks descended on these idealistic young people when they took their place in the white house. Yet they would somehow rally even in adversity. Bill is eternally optimistic. I have long admired Hillary, who was more serious, and how hard she worked to better the lives of Americans, particularly women and children. While they did not accomplish all the goals they set, the Clintons left much they can be proud of. And, a number of the efforts they hoped to accomplish in office came to pass later because they paved the way.
