Giuliani: Flawed or Flawless? - Deborah Hart Strober - Bog

In the fall of 2001, a lame-duck mayor became the most admired man in America, and perhaps the world. Displaying enormous personal courage, boundless energy, and utter confidence in his ability to lead, Rudolph Giuliani took charge of his city's response to the 9/11 attacks while state and federal authorities were still paralyzed by shock. But who is Rudy Giuliani? What insights would his friends, associates, allies, and enemies offer to explain what makes him tick; how he responded-or contributed-to other crises during his term as mayor; and, should he choose to seek higher office, how he might perform as president?
Giuliani presents a living portrait of one of the most prominent and controversial politicians of our era in the words of those who know him best. Featuring more than forty interviews with longtime political associates, teachers, protégées, and friends, as well as his opponents, critics, and other astute political observers, it offers deep and revealing insights into the political and personal evolution of America's most famous ex-mayor.
Complete with an in-depth exploration of Rudy's response to the September 11th terrorist attacks, Giuliani is must reading for devotees of politics and anyone interested in Rudolph Giuliani as a possible presidential contender.
