Woman of the House: The Rise of Nancy Pelosi

I found this book to be very informative about Nancy Pelosi. It has many stories of her life. The author interviewed many people and they give us an inside view of Nancy and also the working of the political system. I have a much greater respect for Ms. Pelosi after reading this book.

Vincent Bzdek takes a close look at Nancy Pelosi, the political cauldrons from whence she came, how she has risen to the challenge of well representing her Congressional district while herding together Democrats of all stripes; and the characteristics and values she's held along the way. From Baltimore to San Francisco to Washington, DC - from mother to candidate to grandmother to Minority Leader to Speaker of the House - from supporter of candidates to the woman in the limelight - and from My Job Is Mom to two heartbeats away from the most important office on the planet - Bzdek profiles the complex, consistent, and canny woman who helps keep her House in order.
