Question About Author, Christopher Andersen, Writer of Hillary Book
I picked up a book on Princess Diana, and read the inside flap about the author, and what other titles he had written. He apparently was a former editor for Time. Anyway, he has a long list of books, many political, and he wrote the disastrous, "Hillary: American Evita", along with other Clinton titles, and it seems that he is very pro-Bush or Pro-Republican. He has a book about Laura and Bush and their "family" and how wonderful they are. I'm curious if anyone knows anything about this guy. Is he a staunch Republican? Is this very well known? I know this is probably a "Duh" question, but I'm wondering if there is any history behind him.

The second part of my post that I'd like to bring up is, are there any pro-Hillary books out there, or ones that are even handed? All these books spew the same garbage that has been debunked a thousand times. I know that she is big money, but come on.

1. I don't know about his political views, but
I've read several of his books and they seem very tabloid-y to me - entertaining but not entirely trustworthy. You've got to take a lot of what he says with a grain of salt.

If you're looking for a good Hillary book, I suggest Gail Sheehy's "Hillary's Choice."

3. Try Bernstein's "A Woman In Charge". I haven't read it yet, but I heard
it was well written and interesting.
