With the Eurozone engulfed in an unprecedented crisis, one political
figure looms largest of all, Angela Merkel, the leader of its most
powerful economy. While foreign affairs have become the central issues
of her chancellorship in this crucial election year, the entire world
is anxiously looking to Germany to play its part in Europe's rescue.
This authorized biography sheds light on the person behind the
politician, from her youthful days of hitchhiking in Tbilisi to being
the guest of honor at a White House state dinner, and examines how a
girl from East Germany rose to the highest echelons of European power.
As well as explaining how Angela Merkel's world view was shaped and
influenced by her background and ideology, this lively account
discusses her personal relations with international counterparts such
as David Cameron, Barack Obama, and Vladimir Putin, as well as her
attitude towards the countries and cultures over which they rule.
