Bill Clinton

An outstanding study that places a recent White House occupant in illuminating historical context. . . . Anyone seeking to understand the late twentieth-century Clinton presidency can do no better than than consult this fine volume." - Journal of American History "A useful starting point for understanding this protean US politician's White House years." - Choice "An exceptionally wellwritten and concise biography of Bill Clinton. Maney offers penetrating insights about both the complexity of Clinton's personality and Washington politics during the socalled 'New Gilded Age'." - Burton Kaufman, author of The PostPresidency from Washington to Clinton "It's a tall order to place a recent president in historical perspective, but Patrick Maney succeeds brilliantly in his analysis of Bill Clinton and the ideological, financial, and technological developments that swirled about him and defined his era." - Donald A. Ritchie, author of Electing FDR: The New Deal of Campaign of 1932 "This is a truly remarkable book. Patrick Maney gives us a penetrating, comprehensive, and thoroughly balanced account of the Clinton presidency, along with a shrewd, insightful assessment of the character of this fascinating and often infuriating denizen of the White House. This book will stand as the gold standard of works on this man and his era." - John Milton Cooper, Jr., author of Woodrow Wilson: A Biography "Patrick J. Maney's Bill Clinton is an engagingly written account of a consequential presidency. Maney's discussion of Clinton's domestic, economic, and foreign policies is especially illuminating." - Michael Nelson, author of Governing at Home: The White House and Domestic Policymaking
