亲历历史(Living History)简介：: 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.　　这是美国总统克林顿夫人希拉里的第一本个人自传，书中透露了这个女强人在遇到诸如克林顿性丑闻等风波时许多鲜为人知的真实的心路生活历程。该书在美国引起巨大轰动，并长期占据排行榜首位，该书在16个国家同步问世！目前已售出100多万本！
　　《亲历历史:希拉里回忆录》从希拉里的中学时代写起，以白宫八年生活为中心，广泛涉及克林顿执政期间美国的对内对外政策、诸多重大国际国内政治事件的背景。《亲历历史》反映出了希拉里的价值取向，读者可以看到她是如何追求独立的。这是一个有追求有责任心的优秀女性，而作为第一夫人，希拉里还写了许多与克林顿相处时的生活细节、她与克林顿之间的情感纠葛等等，译本保留了原作99.9％的内容，可谓原汁原味。
