Summary: Fabulous book!
Review: "The Clinton Years" is a fabulous book with countless, priceless photographs of the Clinton Presidency. There are a wide variety of photographs documented in this book, which reflect Bill Clinton's leadership in the White House over the last 8 years, that are inspiring. The images of William Jefferson Clinton shown are not only in the role of President, but as an individual as well - showing the human side of our President.

As they say, "a picture is worth a thousand words," that most certainly is the case with this book!

Summary: Love or Hate him...it's a rare look inside the White House
Review: Although the pictures are of Clinton, this book is not about him.

In that respect the title is accurate. The Clinton Years is not about Clinton -- it's an inside look at the last eight years.

Regardless of political leanings, this book is about America and the people behind the curtain that make it work. Not many people have an opportunity to see any President in candid moments of success and failure. Now we have that chance.

McNeely is a talented photographer and his skills are on display here. He does well to make the viewer an eyewitness to American History as it plays out through the President. Colin Powell, Al Gore, Hillary, and Janet Reno are just a few notables frozen by McNeely's lens as they interact with Clinton.

If you don't appreciate the power and intrigue of a President --whether Kennedy, Regan, Nixon or Clinton -- this book will not do anything for you. But if you do appreciate the mystique of American Presidents, you're going to miss something if you do not sit down with this book and walk through the past eight years with our last President.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Classic B&W photographs that reveal many aspects of Clinton
Review: Beautiful black and white photographs that document the many aspects of the human side of President Clinton. Each photograph tells a story, perhaps unlike the Public Relations story we have been fed.

I was impressed with the nonstaged real life messages these pictures unfold. Many photographs you would otherwise never see and therefore may know of a small section of the Clinton years.

As much as I enjoyed the gala events and the black tie functions that are part of this collection, I also enjoyed the more relaxed normal everyday shots. So much has been said about the marriage of Hillary and Bill Clinton, negative things, these photographs show many one on one personal moments. It would be hard to view these pictures without coming to the conclusion that these two people are quite fond of one another.

Overall this documentaion of photographs shows an all around man both from a Presidential angle and from that of simply a man, a human being.

Well done and makes for a nice slice of history and an excellent coffee table book. A great conversational piece!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The Spirit of America
Review: Clinton was a master politician and is a captivating human being. A revealing picture in the book, from a European perspective: Queen Elizabeth, Francois Mitterand and Bill Clinton at Omaha Beach, 50 years hence. What a contrast between fossilized 0ld World splendour and the disarming mixture of boyishness and high seriousness embodied by Clinton! If that is the spirit of America, then I'm envious of it ...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Picture Says a Thousand Words
Review: Fantastic collection of Clinton photographs. An inside look into the complexities of the presidency. Touching and thought provoking. The reader gets to share private moments with the President and his inner circle; and also sees international diplomacy at work. A+++++++++

Summary: Camelot Revisited
Review: Former President Bill Clinton's white house photographer was given freedom of access and freedom to publish. The result is
an astonishingly honest look at Clinton in unguarded moments as seen by a man with a gift for capturing time through photographs. It is not political by any stretch of the imagination and instead shows the regality of the Presidency in all its glory. It truly is a glimpse at the fabled Kennedy Camelot in the modern era.

Summary: Don't Get Me Started!
Review: I just don't like Clinton! He is definitely a Nicolae Carpathia through and through I can't believe there are mindless people who worship this guy. Clinton could start his only religious sect! Clintonism!

Rating: 5 stars
