Book 'reveals' Mrs Clinton as an abusive adulteress This is according to a controversial new book by Christopher Anderson, whose American Evita: Hillary Clinton's Path To Power paints a disturbing portrait of a ruthless politician he describes as "the most famous, most complex, most loved/hated/admired/ reviled wo man - perhaps person - in America". Drawing on the testimony of various "new" insider sources as well as published accounts, Anderson argues that there have been inevitable comparisons between Hillary and Argentina's legendary Eva Peron.
