The Hunting of Hillary traces how an entire industry of hate, lies, and fear was created to persecute Hillary Clinton for decades and profit from it.
As part of a team of journalists from Newsday, MICHAEL D'ANTONIO won the Pulitzer Prize for his reporting before going on to write many acclaimed books, including A Consequential President, The Truth About Trump, Atomic Harvest, and The State Boys Rebellion. He has also written for Esquire, The New York Times Magazine, and Sports Illustrated. He lives in New York.
"[D'Antonio] is a fluid writer, responsible summarizer and diligent
researcher. This volume is a comprehensive history of the way
right-wing attacks have both replicated and morphed over the
decades, and across technologies.... But the book is most
successful as a work within the terms of its chosen genre: Clinton
defense. Just as the Clinton prosecution -- in the manner of Edward
Klein and Peter Schweizer -- is a recognizable literary category
(one to which D'Antonio rightly draws critical attention), so is
Clinton defense."
--The New York Times Book Review "His compelling examination of the
'vast, right-wing conspiracy' to take down the esteemed former
first lady and secretary of state is immaculately compiled...
People on both sides of the aisle tire of being asked to confront
this ugly history, but D'Antonio's stirring account demands that we
consider it further, especially now."
--Ms. Magazine "I love this book. It is a thorough and clear-eyed
analysis of how a Midwest, Methodist Goldwater Girl became the most
vilified woman in America. There really was a right-wing
conspiracy; sometimes vast, sometimes half-assed. Michael D'Antonio
gives us a riveting account of the decades-long effort to tear down
the woman who has been named Gallup's Most Admired Woman more than
anyone else. Essential reading."
--Paul Begala, former advisor to President Bill Clinton
"Still, just like the author's previous books, this one is
thoroughly researched, clearly written, and often incisive. Hillary
lovers will love it; Hillary haters will hate it."
--Kirkus Reviews "This galvanizing expos� will stand as a key
resource in the study of sexism and politics."
--Booklist, starred review
