About this title

Review:

"'It is a mark of the excellence of this memoir by the highest-ranking woman in American history... that it could not have been written by a man... Ms Albright's authentic voice is vivid... [an] unusually honest book' Jonathan Mirsky, Spectator; 'It is fashionable in some of the more rabid right-wing Washington salons to look at the Clinton years as ones of drift and equivocation. [Madam Secretary] makes a case for the defence - in foreign policy at least - that largely avoids the partisan sniping... If that were this book's only quality it would be worth noting' Alex Massie, Scotland on Sunday"

Book Description:

A unique insight into the White House and world affairs from the the first female in America's history to become Secretary of State
