Book excerpt: A collection of award-winning and finely detailed profiles of today's most fascinating political, sports, and pop-culture figures. Mark Leibovich returns to puncture the inflated personas of the powerful and reveal the lives, stories, and peculiarities behind their public masks. On subjects including Hillary Clinton, Glenn Beck, John Kerry, Paul Ryan, Chris Christie, and John McCain, Leibovich maintains a refreshing conviviality even as he renders incisive and unflinching assessments. Confirming his reputation as a master of the political profile (Washington Post), Citizens of the Green Room will delight fans of This Town and the legions of political junkies who avidly read Leibovich's work in The New York Times Magazine.
