Book excerpt: AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! The definitive biography of Nancy Pelosi, the most powerful woman in American political history, written by New York Times bestselling author and USA Today Washington bureau chief Susan Page. Featuring more than 150 exclusive interviews with those who know her best—and a series of in-depth, news-making interviews with Pelosi herself—MADAM SPEAKER is unprecedented in the scope of its exploration of Nancy Pelosi’s remarkable life and of her indelible impact on American politics. Before she was Nancy Pelosi, she was Nancy D’Alesandro. Her father was a big-city mayor and her mother his political organizer; when she encouraged her young daughter to become a nun, Nancy told her mother that being a priest sounded more appealing. She didn’t begin running for office until she was forty-six years old, her five children mostly out of the nest. With that, she found her calling. Nancy Pelosi has lived on the cutting edge of the revolution in both women’s roles and in the nation’s movement to a fiercer and more polarized politics. She has established herself as a crucial friend or formidable foe to U.S. presidents, a master legislator, and an indefatigable political warrior. She took on the Democratic establishment to become the first female Speaker of the House, then battled rivals on the left and right to consolidate her power. She has soared in the sharp-edged inside game of politics, though she has struggled in the outside game—demonized by conservatives, second-guessed by progressives, and routinely underestimated by nearly everyone. All of this was preparation for the most historic challenge she would ever face, at a time she had been privately planning her retirement. When Donald Trump was elected to the White House, Nancy Pelosi became the Democratic counterpart best able to stand up to the disruptive president and to get under his skin. The battle between Trump and Pelosi, chronicled in this book with behind-the-scenes details and revelations, stands to be the titanic political struggle of our time.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Speaker, Vol. 4: A Review of Politics, Letters, Science, and the Arts; August 15, 1891 Now it is quite within the bounds of possibility - looking at the way the Porte usually conducts its business - that the negotiations may not be left to the present Government to complete. By the end of next year, at latest, we shall have a new Foreign Secretary, and as to the remoter future of our policy in Egypt, the Liberal party, whom he will represent, has always been divided in Opinion. A certain section - of less relative importance than formerly, but still very influential among the electorate would gladly withdraw as soon as possible not only from Egypt, but from all foreign entanglements whatever. Another section would undoubtedly adopt an ideal which is economically impossible, unless, like the democracies of antiquity, we made our subject allies pay tribute - democracy at home combined with Empire abroad. Both ideals are outside the Sphere of practical politics. Tith regard to the immediate future, no conceivable Government, Conservative or Liberal, can have any policy save one - which is marked out for us by circumstances beyond our own control.

Book excerpt: Unthinkable just a generation ago, Hillary Clinton's run for the presidency and Nancy Pelosi's ascension to Speaker of the House have cast the spotlight on American political women as never before. In the 230 years of this country's history, never has a woman—let alone a mother and a grandmother—risen to such a position of power as Nancy Pelosi did when she assumed her role as the first female Speaker of the House, third in line for the presidency. In Madam Speaker, Marc Sandalow, an esteemed journalist and political analyst who covered Pelosi for decades, offers a richly nuanced portrait of the woman who made history. He charts Pelosi's political roots, honing in on her father, who spent five terms in Congress and stored hundreds of copies of the Congressional Record under her bed, and goes on to examine how Pelosi, who didn't run for political office until she was 47 years old, juggled her family life and fought hard to forge a place for herself in Washington, ultimately becoming one of the most influential voices in our nation. Based on hundreds of interviews with Pelosi's colleagues, family, and friends—and the Speaker herself—Sandalow culls together insightful anecdotes and political analysis to chronicle Pelosi's meteoric rise and controversial tenure. Madam Speaker illuminates the inspiring life of a woman who has already made history.

Download or read book Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the New American Politics written by Ronald M. Peters, Jr. and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2010-04-16 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the Democrats retook control of the U.S. House of Representatives in January 2007 after twelve years in the wilderness, Nancy Pelosi became the first woman speaker in American history. In Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the New American Politics, Ron Peters, one of America's leading scholars of Congress, and Cindy Simon Rosenthal, one of America's leading scholars on women and political leadership, provide a comprehensive account of how Pelosi became speaker and what this tells us about Congress in the twenty-first century. They consider the key issues that Pelosi's rise presents for American politics, highlight the core themes that have shaped, and continue to shape, her remarkable caree, and discuss the challenges that women face in the male-dominated world of American politics, particularly at its highest levels. The authors also shed light on Pelosi's political background: first as the scion of a powerful Baltimore political family whose power base lay in East Coast urban ethnic politics, and later as a successful politician in what is probably the most liberal city in the country, San Francisco. Peters and Rosenthal trace how she built her base within the House Democratic Caucus and ultimately consolidated enough power to win the Speakership. They show how twelve years out of power allowed her to fashion a new image for House Democrats, and they conclude with an analysis of her institutional leadership style. The only full-length portrait of Nancy Pelosi in print, this superb volume offers a vivid and insightful analysis of one of America's most remarkable politicians.

Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER A riveting inside account of the unprecedented rise to power and unmatched political legacy of the first woman Speaker of the House, by award-winning journalist Molly Ball Nancy Pelosi’s opposition to Donald Trump has made her an icon of the Resistance, featured in viral memes clapping sardonically at the president or ripping up his State of the Union address. But the real Nancy Pelosi is neither the shrill partisan featured in thousands of attack ads nor the cautious corporatist reviled by the far left. She’s the rare politician who still knows how to get big things done—a master of legislative power whose policy accomplishments have touched millions of American lives, from providing universal access to health care to reforming Wall Street to allowing gay people to serve openly in the military. She’s done it all at a time of historic polarization and gridlock, despite being routinely underestimated by allies and opponents alike. Ball’s nuanced, page-turning portrait takes readers inside Pelosi’s life and times, from her roots in urban Baltimore to her formative years as a party activist and fundraiser, from the fractious politics of San Francisco to high-stakes congressional negotiations with multiple presidents. The result is a compelling portrait of a barrier-breaking woman that sheds new light on American political history. Based on exclusive interviews with the Speaker and deep background reporting, Ball shows Pelosi through a thoroughly modern lens to explain how this extraordinary woman has met her moment.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Speaker, Vol. 4: A Review of Politics, Letters, Science, and the Arts; July 18, 1891 During the week ended Wednesday night, some what over in gold were taken out of the Bank of England, chiefly for Russia. A considerable amount also was withdrawn for Holland and Germany, and more will go. It is probable likewise that before long a strong demand for the United States will spring up, and as soon as harvesting begins, coin will flow out to the Provinces. Naturally, therefore, there has been a considerable rise in the rate of discount in the open market. At one time last week it was as low as g per cent. N ow it has advanced to g per cent., and in some cases as much as 12 per cent. Is charged. If gold continues to be withdrawn from the Bank Of England, as now seems probable, there will be a further advance. There has, too, during the week been some revival of. Alarmist rumours, which, however, appear to be entirely unfounded. It was said that the messrs. Murrieta were again in difficulties. That is in credible, as it is only the other day that they received the assistance which they required. There was also a report that the English Bank of the River Plate intended making a call upon its share holders in consequence Of losses, but the report is contradicted by the Managing Director. But while the rate Of discount in the Open market has recovered so rapidly, the rate of interest for short loans remains exceedingly low. The speculation in silver has not made much progress. There is still a belief in some quarters that we shall see a rapid rise, partly because Of speculative Operations in the United States, and partly because of buying by the Bank of Spain. But it is exceedingly doubtful whether the belief will be realised. The present is not a favourable time for large speculative Opera tions Of any kind, and there is so much Opposition in the United States to further silver legislation that the efforts of speculators there will probably be defeated.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Speaker, Vol. 4: A Review of Politics, Letters, Science, and the Arts; October 3, 1891 The good M. De Blowitz has been surpassing himself this week (he performs the feat about fifty times in the year). The death of the Grand Duchess Paul of Russia having made it necessary that the Czar and Czarina should return without delay to their own country, in order to pay the customary honours to the dead, M. Blowitz has explained in the Times with what eagerness the Czar seized the excuse thus furnished in order to avoid a meet ing with the German Emperor - a meeting which, under the circumstances, would have been distinctly embarrassing. The explanation was ingenious, and was accepted by the readers of the Times with perfect satisfaction; nor is it likely that their faith in the prophet of Paris will be dimin ished by the announcement, which has since been made, that a meeting between the Czar and the German Emperor will, after all, take place within the next few weeks. Speaking generally, there is nothing new in the position of Continental politics; but the uneasy feelings which prevailed a few weeks ago, and which were so largely due to the panic mongers of the press, are beginning to subside, and confidence in the maintenance of peace has been strengthened by speeches from M. Ribot and General Caprivi, both optimistic in tone. The refusal of the two Berlin firms who had originally undertaken to present the Russian loan to the German public to place it on the Money Market has given great offence at St. Petersburg, and is the one disquieting event of the week.
