Katharine Graham, the legendary publisher of 'The Washington Post' and doyenne of Washington society, was brought up in great wealth and privilege, yet she was naive and awkward. However, as head of 'The Washington Post' she went on to become a woman famous (and feared) in her own right.
Graham's book is populated with a cast of fascinating characters, from fifty years of presidents (and their wives) to the great names of the 'Post': Bob Woodward, Carl Bernstein, and the editor, Ben Bradless. She writes of the most dramatic moments of her stewardship - the Pentagon Papers, Watergate, the pressmen's strike - with acuity, humour and good judgement.
