Amazon.com review:

"An invaluable history of an extraordinary presidency, and the chronicle of a generation’s political odyssey. When in 1997 Bill Clinton appointed Sidney Blumenthal as a senior advisor, the former writer was catapulted into the front lines of the Clinton wars. From his first day in the White House until long after his appearance as the only presidential aide ever to testify in an impeachment trial, Blumenthal acted in or witnessed nearly all the battles of the Clinton years. His book—part history, part memoir—is the first inside account we have of the presidency of William Jefferson Clinton. Blumenthal's chronicle of Clinton’s first presidential campaign and first term draws on his experiences as confidant to both the President and the First Lady, and is enriched with previously unpublished revelations about both. This remarkable personal interpretation goes far in explaining the polarizing nature of Clinton’s presence on the national scene. The narrative of Clinton’s second term is even more dramatic. The Clinton Wars is a lasting contribution to American history."
