This definitive account explores the life of one of the most accomplished and controversial figures in American history. Bill Clinton, a transformative leader, shaped American politics during his presidency, which sparked ongoing debates. Despite extensive writings about him, including his own autobiography, a comprehensive, nonpartisan overview of his presidency has been lacking. Award-winning Washington Post correspondent John F. Harris, who covered Clinton for six years, is uniquely qualified to provide this analysis. Harris reveals the inner workings of the Clinton White House, framing the historical debate around President William Jefferson Clinton. Entering the Oval Office in 1993 amid a tumultuous political landscape, Clinton faced challenges stemming from his Arkansas governance style and the mistrust of "permanent Washington." Known for his enthusiasm and temper, he and Hillary Rodham Clinton navigated a complex environment filled with skepticism from both parties. Despite numerous challenges, including health care reform failures and personal controversies, Clinton's desire to govern from the middle led him to engage with political adversaries. Yet, his inclination for conciliation over clarity and personal struggles often overshadowed his presidency. Filled with major revelations and nuanced details, this synthesis of the Clinton years offers an authoritative account of his leadership and its lasting impact.
