      Hillary Rodham Clinton provides an inside account of her four years as America’s 67th Secretary of State, detailing the crises and choices that shaped her perspective on the future. She reflects on the hard choices we all face, emphasizing how they define us. After her 2008 presidential campaign, Clinton anticipated returning to the Senate but was unexpectedly invited by President Barack Obama to join his administration. This memoir chronicles the extraordinary years that followed, marked by significant challenges.

By the end of her term, she had visited 112 countries and traveled nearly one million miles, gaining insights into major global issues such as economic inequality and climate change.

    • После неудачной президентской кампании 2008 года Хиллари Клинтон неожиданно для себя оказалась на посту государственного секретаря США. В этой книге собраны воспоминания экс-Первой леди Белого Дома об этой работе. Хиллари Клинтон обеспечивала все внешнеполитические решения первой администрации Барака Обамы, отвечала не только за исполнение, но и за разработку стратегии, воплощение которой мы наблюдаем сегодня. Госсекретарю пришлось работать в тяжелые времена, требующие непростых решений. Ей предстояло закончить две войны, договориться с Россией, окончательно разобраться с Осамой бен Ладеном, укрепить распадавшиеся альянсы, справиться с мировым финансовым кризисом. Особенно интересны нашим читателям воспоминания Хиллари Клинтон о «перезагрузке» российско-американских отношений и о её встречах с Владимиром Путиным, Дмитрием Медведевым и, конечно, её визави — Сергеем Лавровым. Эти колоритные детали вносят личные нотки в довольно жесткие и порой весьма нелицеприятные мемуары той, кто могла бы стать первой в мире женщиной-президентом США.
