The Hunting of the President: The Ten-Year Campaign to Destroy Bill and Hillary Clinton Paperback - 2001

by Joe Conason; Gene Lyons

Two national columnists team up to take an explosive look at a ten-year, $100-million campaign to destroy Bill and Hillary Clinton, beginning when Lee Atwater set into motion a chain of attacks against the couple. 16-page photo insert.


From the publisher

When Hillary Clinton spoke of a vast right-wing conspiracy determined to bring down the president, many people dismissed the idea. Yet if the first lady's accusation was exaggerated, the facts that have since emerged point toward a covert and often concerted effort by Bill Clinton's enemies--abetted by his own reckless behavior--which led inexorably to impeachment. Clinton's foes launched a cascade of well-financed attacks that undermined American democracy and nearly destroyed the Clinton presidency. In vivid prose, Joe Conason and Gene Lyons, two award-winning veteran journalists, identify the antagonists, reveal their tactics, trace the millions of dollars that subsidized them, and examine how and why mainstream news organizations aided those who were determined to bring down Bill Clinton, The Hunting of the President may very well be the All the President's Men of this political regime.

First line

THE CHANCES ARE that hardly anyone noticed the two political operatives from Arkansas who slipped in and out of Republican national headquarters on an autumn day in 1989.
