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.

读后感

不是生来就是第一夫人或议员，不是生来就是民主党，不是生来就是律师或妇女权利及人权的倡导者，不是生来就是妻子或母亲。 这本书的第一句话，足以吸引我继续往下看。花了一个月的时间慢慢读完，很有成就感。作为一个女人，希拉里能够在无比残酷的政坛生存下来并取得自己的一...  

希拉里个人的成长轨迹，精神面貌，追求信仰，以及她所处的环境－－美国的近时代的文化、观念及其发展。 推荐略读，觉得文采实在是挺一般，至少译版是如此。  

希拉里写这本书的时候，正怀着问鼎白宫的雄心壮志，因此这本书尽管给人坦率的感觉，到底是否真的很坦率，值得怀疑。一个政治家在退出政坛之后写的回忆录，可能价值更大。 不过，对希拉里这个人还是很佩服、很喜欢的。尤其喜欢她的青年时代。回想起自己的青年时代，觉得真是白...  

文/Lilian 年中希拉里宣布参加下一任美国总统竞选之日，我想起了书架上久置的这本《亲历历史》。从八月初开始至今，用整整30天的时间看完，穿插在工作和带娃间歇的阅读时间虽更多属碎片式，但《亲历历史》的吸引力就在于即使一小段也有精彩之处，让人放下后便想立刻拿起。 最...  

假设此书的翻译无误且严谨的话，希拉里同志的写作水平实在让人质疑。一般政界的名人传记，有价值的内幕、史料实在太多。反观此书，无非是一个完美女神的成长史，家教严格，道德良好，热爱祖国，团结同学，努力学习，宗教虔诚，政治立场坚定，贤妻良母，关心妇女儿童和广大不发...  

用户评价

Always aim high, word hard, and care deeply about what you believe in. 毫无疑问当今世界影响最大的女性、活着的人当中我最崇拜的人！

必须承认是冲着拉链门去的，每个桃色新闻之后，大众最想窥探的不就是受害女主角的内心拔河么，对男人我们早就绝望了，除非铁证如山，他们是打死都ging的

美（国）人心计

希拉里应该参加共和党才对~

说实话 质量真的不如Obama的好 完全是在记流水账啊
