From hope to hot springs, from Georgetown University to Oxford, from Yale to little Rock, and finally from the Governor's Mansion to the White House, Hamilton recounts the personal and political life of the 42nd President-including the women who helped him get to the top: Virginia, his feisty mother, Hillary, his extraordinary wife, Betsey Wright, his great chief of staff- and his mistresses from Gennifer Flowers to Marilyn Jo Denton. This is the epic account of a roller-coaster career: a true-life drama which neither Bill nor Hillary Clinton could ever dare relate, yet which provides us at last with the means to understand one of the most complex and representative men of our time.

Index. décimale : 820 Littérature anglaise Résumé : In Cuba, eighty-four days ago, old Santiago returns empty-handed, his nets desperately empty. Chance has deserted it for a long time. At the dawn of the ninety-fifth day, his young friend Manolin provides him with two beautiful fresh sardines to bait the fish, and wishes him good luck by watching him go aboard his little boat. Today, Santiago feels that fortune returns to him. And indeed, a fish comes to bite the hook. It is a beautiful and gigantic marlin. Then begins the fiercest duels. Combat of man and nature, novel of courage and hope, The old man and the sea is one of the greatest books of American literature.
