Hillary Rodham Clinton

By: Jeri Freedman

The story of Hillary Rodham Clinton in many ways parallels the story of the United States in the latter half of the 20th century and beginning of the 21st century. As part of the baby boom generation, she came of age at the time of the civil rights movement, the Vietnam war, and Watergate. This biography explores the path that led Hillary from her conservative Republican, middle-class beginnings to her emergence as a leader of the Democratic party. As a woman, she has experienced opportunities and positions that would have been unimaginable to previous generations of women. Hillary Rodham Clinton could be the first female president of the United States, making this timely biography essential reading.
