Review by CK Smith
Something Lost, Something Gained is the latest memoir by Hillary Rodham Clinton. An interesting retrospect on Clinton’s life that bounces around in chronology as if she were sitting down with a cup of coffee and just chatting about her opinions and experiences as they came to mind.
