Legacy by Rich Lowry

Full Title: Legacy, Paying the Price for the Clinton Years

by National Review editor Rich Lowry

When this hardback came out in 2003,
the fight over the Clinton legacy has just begun.
Richard Lowry predicted that “Bill will spend the
rest of his life defending it and Hilary will run for
president on it.”

In this shattering indictment, National Review Editor
Rich Lowry exposes the Clinto legancy for what he
believes it was - spin, lies and failure.
