*A Review of, Paul Kengor, “God and Hillary Clinton: A Spiritual Life.”
Let’s state this clearly from the beginning. Whether you embrace Hillary Clinton’s politics or not, whether you embrace Hillary Clinton’s beliefs or not, her beliefs are a critically important issue, for they deeply impact her political convictions.
Here’s another fact to clarify. The author, Paul Kengor, is not an apologist for Hillary Clinton. He has written similar books on Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush. His aim in all three books is to write an accurate spiritual history of these three important political figures.
In “God and Hillary Clinton,” Kengor excels at revealing to readers the spiritual shaping factors that brought Hillary Clinton to embrace the beliefs and practices she does. If you want insight into who she is, what she believes, who influenced her personally, who she read, and why, then this is the book to read.
What’s more, Kengor’s writing style, his first-hand interviews, and his access to letters and other documents, make this a well-written, creative, captivating history book–no easy task.
