内容説明

In his riveting portrait of the most powerful Secretary of State in recent years, Glenn Kessler paints a revealing portrait of Condoleezza Rice as a woman and as an unstoppable political force. As the first critical examination of her skills as policy-maker, politician and manager, "The Confidante" is packed with startling and previously unreported stories about Rice and her divisive role during one of the most tumultuous foreign-policy periods in U.S. history. Drawing on personal interviews with Rice, an intimacy afforded to Kessler as one of a few reporters travelling with her, Kessler goes inside secret meetings Rice held with foreign leaders and her private conversations with President Bush. He reveals not only her public and private humiliations but how her charm and grace have been successful assets in maintaining trust and repairing fractured relations overseas. Today, Condoleezza Rice is one of the most alluring, controversial, and ultimately influential decision makers in the U.S. With this important work, Kessler shows what traits could either solidify her rise to greatness or send her career hurdling to ruin.
