Race of a Lifetime

Beschrijving van de uitgever

The American presidential election of 2008 was as riveting a spectacle as modern politics has ever produced.

The meteoric rise and historic triumph of Barack Obama. The shocking fall of the House of Clinton - and the improbable resurrection of Hillary as Obama's partner and America's face to the world. The mercurial, at times erratic, performance of John McCain. The mesmerizing and bewil­dering emergence of Sarah Palin.

In 2008, the battle for the White House became blockbuster entertain­ment. Everyone was watching. But despite the wall-to-wall media coverage, remarkably little of the real story behind the headlines has yet been told.

Race of a Lifetime pulls back the curtain on the Obama, Clinton, McCain, and Palin campaigns.
