HRC: State Secrets and the Rebirth of Hillary Clinton talks about Hillary Clinton’s stint as the United States Secretary of State and recuperation from her loss in the 2008 Democratic presidential primaries. Summary of the Book Amie Parnes and Jonathan Allen have compiled a gripping biography that combines deep reporting and West Wing-esque storytelling to depict one of the greatest political comebacks in history. The story of Hillary's phoenix-like rise is at the heart of HRC, and this book deep into the heart of "Hillaryland" to understand a brilliant strategist at work. HRC also offers a unique look inside the merciless Clinton political machine. Based on more than two hundred top-access interviews with Hillary's friends, colleagues, supporters, and enemies, the book puts readers in the room with Hillary during the most pivotal moments of this era, as she considers the president-elect's offer to join the administration and struggles to deal with the fallout of the awful events in Benghazi - all while keeping one eye completely focused on 2016.
