The definitive biography of German Chancellor Angela Merkel, detailling the extraordinary rise and political brilliance of the most powerful - and elusive - woman in the world.  A pastor's daughter raised in Soviet-controlled East Germanym Angela Merkel spent her twenties working as a research chemist, entering politics only after the fall of the Berlin Wall. And yet within fifteen years, she had become chancellor of Germany and, before long, the unofficial leader of the West. In The Chancellor, acclaimed biographer Kati Marton sets out to pierce the mystery of Merkel's unlikely ascent. At once a gripping political biography, an intimate human portrait, and a revelatory look at successful leadership in action, The Chancellor brings forth one of the most extraordinary women of our time.
