A nivel personal, mi visión más remota de Jerónimo Saavedra se remonta a una tarde en la Universidad de La Laguna cuando al salir de la Biblioteca Central, el profesor ayudante de Historia del Arte, Carlos Perez Reyes, oriundo de Arucas, y yo mismo comprobamos que un grupo de señores, con corbata y americanas o chaquetas de piel de ante, no habituales en el recinto universitario, ocuparon el vestibulo de la Universidad.

J'ai voulu prendre le lecteur par la main, lui faire vivre ces années à l'Elysée comme s'il avait été à mes côtés tout au long de ces évènements"

She can be funny and sharp-tongued, warm and blunt, empathic and demanding. Who is the woman Barack Obama calls "the boss"? In Michelle, Washington Post writer Liza Mundy paints a revealing and intimate portrait, taking us inside the marriage of the most dynamic couple in politics today. She shows how well they complement each other: Michelle, the highly organized, sometimes intimidating, list-making pragmatist; Barack, the introspective political charmer who won't pick up his socks but shoots for the stars. Their relationship, like those of many couples with two careers and two children, has been so strained at times that he has had to persuade her to support his climb up the political ladder. And you can't blame her for occasionally regretting it: In this campaign, it is Michelle who has absorbed much of the skepticism from voters about Obama. One conservative magazine put her on the cover under the headline "Mrs. Grievance."Michelle's story carries with it all the extraordinary achievements and lingering pain of America in the post-civil rights era. She grew up on the south side of Chicago, the daughter of a city worker and a stay-at-home mom in a neighborhood rocked by white flight. She was admitted to Princeton amid an angry debate about affirmative action and went on to Harvard Law School, where she was more comfortable doing pro-bono work for the poor than gunning for awards with the rest of her peers. She became a corporate lawyer, then left to train community leaders. She is modern in her tastes but likes to watch reruns of The Dick Van Dyke Show and The Brady Bunch.

Este libro presenta el estudio del archivo personal del político vasco Joseba Azkarraga Rodero, que durante catorce años fue diputado y senador en las Cortes Generales y, posteriormente, consejero de Justicia, Empleo y Seguridad Social del Gobierno vasco, entre 2001 y 2009. Un archivo que fue recopilado y compuesto por el mismo, a lo largo de su biografia politica y en relacion con los importantes asuntos y acontecimientos que le toco vivir en torno a la historia reciente de nuestro pais y de Euskadi. Desde esta perspectiva de testigo presencial, el archivo contiene un valor testimonial enorme y es una fuente primaria realmente importante para la investigacion de nuestra historia contemporanea. El archivo tiene un recorrido cronologico que se extiende entre el final del franquismo, pasando por la conflictiva Transicion, el Golpe de Estado de 1981, todo genero de violencias sufridas a lo largo de tantas decadas, los controvertidos años del Felipismo, hasta llegar a los gobiernos del lehendakari Ibarretxe, de los que Azkarraga formo parte y finalizar con un ultimo capitulo biografico como portavoz de la red ciudadana SARE. El libro trata de mostrar la singularidad y riqueza documental, fotografica y hemerografica del archivo Azkarraga. Ademas, constituye una propuesta de investigacion para futuros trabajos sobre un periodo tan trascendental de la historia, pendiente aun de escribir y necesitado de documentacion que avale un relato riguroso y veraz.
