Author of the Instant #1 New York Times Bestseller What Happened

The Phenomenal #1 Worldwide Bestseller—With a New Afterword
Hillary Rodham Clinton is known to hundreds of millions of people around the world. Yet few beyond her close friends and family have ever heard her account of her extraordinary journey. She writes with candor, humor and passion about her upbringing in suburban, middle-class America in the 1950s and her transformation from Goldwater Girl to student activist to controversial First Lady.

Living History is her revealing memoir of life through the White House years. It is also her chronicle of living history with Bill Clinton, a thirty-year adventure in love and politics that survives personal betrayal, relentless partisan investigations and constant public scrutiny.

Hillary Rodham Clinton came of age during a time of tumultuous social and political change in America. Like many women of her generation, she grew up with choices and opportunities unknown to her mother or grandmother. She charted her own course through unexplored terrain -- responding to the changing times and her own internal compass -- and became an emblem for some and a lightning rod for others. Wife, mother, lawyer, advocate and international icon, she has lived through America's great political wars, from Watergate to Whitewater.

The only First Lady to play a major role in shaping domestic legislation, Hillary Rodham Clinton traveled tirelessly around the country to champion health care, expand economic and educational opportunity and promote the needs of children and families, and she crisscrossed the globe on behalf of women's rights, human rights and democracy. She redefined the position of First Lady and helped save the presidency from an unconstitutional, politically motivated impeachment. Intimate, powerful and inspiring, Living History captures the essence of one of the most remarkable women of our time and the challenging process by which she came to define herself and find her own voice -- as a woman and as a formidable figure in American politics.

Great history, but a slow read at times

Reviewed in the United States on October 1, 2018

Verified Purchase

This book was very informative, and a shock. I wasn't alive during thetime period of the book, but it was a great history to have so I could better understand Hillary's later memoirs, so I started with the first one. I was pushing myself to read it at many times, but I'm glad I did. The book inspired me to look into a career with politics, and inspired me to start campaigning as well. I'm blown away with her courage and determination to help the lives of others, in our country and around the world. It was slow, repititive, and tedious; but if you have a long attention span and some determination to get through it, you'll enjoy it as much as I did!

I loved this book. I have always had much respect for Hillary. I detest how she has been treated, unfairly and dishonestly . Seeing her life, real, honest, heartwarming, she is so brilliant. She would be my one person to meet and let her know how she has touched my life. She has truly made a positive impact on the world, on people she has met. You may not know this, but God does. Many blessings for you. Thankyou for your dedication to making positive change and impact.

Important to Know

Reviewed in the United States on July 9, 2021

Verified Purchase

I like to read biographies and autobiographies so that I can try to figure out what makes people like they are. I bought this book used from Pastime Book Sellers, and some pathetic, lonely weasel tried to ruin the book for me by putting the price code tag right over Hillary's eyes on the cover of the book. Because of that I intend to never purchase a book from these people again. The book itself is great. There's a lot of stuff I already knew and even more that I didn't. In this book Hillary mentions a book called "Leading From My Heart" by Virginia Kelley (Bill's mother) that Hillary says tells a lot about Bill's childhood. I just ordered a used copy from another seller. I hope they employ more honorable people.

Don't listen to overly negative reviews

Reviewed in the United States on July 26, 2005

Verified Purchase

Hillary is one of the most villified woman in American history and the knee-jerk negative reaction of some of the Amazon's reviewers (many who apparently never bothered to read this book) is just an another example of the right wing conspiracy against her. Sure, she isn't a saint. But who is? George Bush? Give me a break.

This is her AUTObiography, therefore, she casts her story in the most positive light possible. Did anyone expect anything else?

The most interesting part of this book is her pre-White House days. The Clintons could have been a very wealthy couple (both are Yale law grads) if their goal was money. Instead, they have spent many relatively financially modest years in Arkanasas performing mainly public service. Hillary's only private sector job was with the Rose Law Firm, which she became a partner. They are the only White House couple in the last 50 years not to have their own separate private vacation home.

The book also reveals Hillary's incredible work ethic, intelligence, and loyalty to her husband. Say what you will about her, but I don't think any of the three can be questioned. Overall, I found Hillary's life to be inspirational to all those who aspire to rise to the top from a rather modest beginning.

Finally, I didn't know Bill Clinton's early life was so difficult. His biological father died before he was born and his stepfather regularly beat his mother until he was 15, when he was finally big enough to defend his mother. I imagine there has been many violent encounters between Bill and his stepfather. I wonder why Bill still kept his stepfather's last name "Clinton".

Much more entertaining than I thought and I now respect this woman!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 8, 2015

Verified Purchase

A genuinely riveting read, not just because of who Mrs Clinton is but because you get a fantastic insider view of American politics. This autobiography goes up until 2004 when Hillary Rodham Clinton becomes a New York Senator and I really do recommend this to anyone who wants to find out who Hillary Clinton actually is! She has carried out so many visits to different countries, presided over many new laws and has a genuine desire to work with others (on both sides) to push for reforms concerning women, children and healthcare. I was riveted and my respect for her increased - I did not know just how much she did for so many different groups of Americans and people in different countries. The book also lays bare the vicious political minefield of American politics and some of the skulduggery made me gasp - anyway, get this and enjoy it - I did!!

Fascinating.

I developed a deep respect and affection for Mrs Rodham Clinton whilst reading this book. I thought it was well written and that she expressed herself carefully but honestly. She strikes me as a women of principle but also a human being. I'm British but if I were able to, I'd vote for her! I learned a huge amount about American politics reading this book. There was some need to reread paragraphs or google terminology but in the process, I feel much better informed and the writing style does help to make the complex subjects accessible. A fascinating insight into a unique period in American history, livened up by human interest anecdotes.

Expensive cheap quality paperback

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 14, 2020

Verified Purchase

The print in this book was very small. The paper felt cheap quality and the pictures (which were not included with the kindle edition which is why I bought the paperback) were very poor quality with grainy black and white photographs that looked as if it they had been photocopied too many times!!! The book was £12.99 and I had to pay £3.99 to return it even though I am a prime member. Very disappointed .
