Reviews
Kissinger is a triumph. Isaacon writes...with sympathy, verve, imagination, insight, and a keen eye. A stunning achievement., Confirms Kissinger's place as one of the greatinternational players and takes him down a peg as well...Kissinger will raveabout the parts he likes and rage about the rest...This makes for compulsivereading., A solidly researched, richly textured, andextremely readable account of a man in dramatic times who seemed bigger thanlife., This biography of Henry Kissinger is enhanced by Malcolm Hillgartner's outstanding narration. His delivery is lively, and he's a great storyteller--no half-bored professor intoning a history lecture here...The lengthy book presents a full portrait of Kissinger in all his egotistical, power-grubbing, brilliant complexity. It covers everything from his German childhood to his family's flight from the Nazis, his college years, and his rise to power as a controversial secretary of state in the Nixon and Ford administrations., As a commanding opus for the present, enlivened by snippets from hundreds of interviews, Isaacson raises a high bar for any historians who challenge him., The fullest account of Kissinger's life andcareer to date, other than for his memoirs...A spooky, engrossing portrait of theonly European-style realist ever to guide US foreign policy., Mr. Isaacson's work is a model of insight, delicacy, and fairness that moves at a lively pace through recent American history and re-creates, inconsiderable depth, the intellectuals and politicians who formed its foreign policy., Isaacson...has produced much more than anotherunauthorized biography...While there are other excellent Kissinger biographies,this work is the best to date on Henry K. Superstar., A critical but resolutely objective and utterlyfascinating biography of the guileful, egocentric geopolitical scientist whobecame America's most celebrated secretary of state...An authoritative andcomprehensive account...An evenhanded, warts-and-all portrait of alarger-than-life individual who has left his mark behind., In its range and research, it is the book toend all books on Mr. Kissinger. For his aficionados, it makes compulsivereading; for students of his years of influence on United States foreignpolicy, it is compulsory.

Synopsis
By the time Henry Kissinger was made secretary of state in 1973, he had become, according to a Gallup poll, the most admired person in America and one of the most unlikely celebrities ever to capture the world's imagination. Yet Kissinger was also reviled by large segments of the American public, ranging from liberal intellectuals to conservative activists. Kissinger explores the relationship between this complex man's personality and the foreign policy he pursued. Drawing on extensive interviews with Kissinger as well as 150 other sources, including US presidents and his business clients, this first full-length biography makes use of many of Kissinger's private papers and classified memos to tell his uniquely American story. The result is an intimate narrative, filled with surprising revelations, that follows this grandly colorful statesman from his childhood as a persecuted Jew in Nazi Germany, through his tortured relationship with Richard Nixon, to his later years as a globe-trotting business consultant.
