Taylor Branch talks about his new book, The Clinton Tapes: Wrestling History with the President.

Over a seven-year period Bill Clinton talked intimately to Taylor Branch about what it’s like to be president, revealing what he thought and felt and could not say in public. Branch includes his own reactions to the content of these conversations, as well as observations on Clinton’s demeanor, moods and puzzlements. The Clinton Tapes provides a unique look at the presidency and Bill Clinton’s place in the ranks of our chief executives.

Pulitzer Prize winning historian Taylor Branch is the author of three books on the life of Martin Luther King, Jr.: Parting the Waters, Pillar of Fire, and At Canaan’s Edge.
