Pelosi
(Book)
Description
An intimate, fresh perspective on the most powerful woman in American political history, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, by award-winning political journalist Molly Ball She's the iconic leader who puts Donald Trump in his place, the only woman tough enough to take on a lawless president and defend American democracy. Ever since the Democrats took back the House in the 2018 mid-term elections, Nancy Pelosi has led the opposition with strategic mastery and inimitable élan. It’s a remarkable comeback for the veteran politician who for years was demonized by the right and taken for granted by many in her own party – even though, as Speaker under President Barack Obama, she deserves much of the credit for epochal liberal accomplishments from the Affordable Care Act to allowing openly gay people to serve in the military. How did an Italian grandmother in four-inch heels become the greatest legislator since LBJ? Ball’s nuanced, page-turning portrait takes readers inside the life and times of this historic and underappreciated figured. Based on exclusive interviews with the Speaker and deep background reporting, Ball shows Pelosi through a thoroughly modern lens to explain how this extraordinary woman has met her moment.
