Giuliani : Flawed or Flawless? - The Oral

As he took charge of his city's response to the 9/11 attacks, New York City's mayor Rudy Giuliani became the most admired man in America, and perhaps the world. Featuring interviews with longtime political associates, teachers, prot_g_es, and friends, as well as his opponents, critics, and other astute political observers, Giuliani presents a living portrait of one of the most prominent and controversial politicians of our era.

Deborah Hart Strober and Gerald S. Strober are the authors of His Holiness the Dalai Lama: The Oral Biography and Billy Graham: An Oral and Narrative Biography, both available from Wiley, and four previous oral histories, including Let Us Begin Anew: An Oral History of the Kennedy Presidency and Reagan: The Man and His Presidency. They are longtime residents of New York City.
