President of Latvia Vaira Vīķe-Freiberga. A Biography by Ausma Cimdiņa. Translator Kārlis Streips. Designers Egīls Pārups, Juris Petraškevičs.
"Vaira Vīķe-Freiberga is a President of whom any superpower could be proud." (Jacques Chirac, President of France)
"Many believe, I think correctly, that the Latvian President (Vaira Vīķe-Freiberga) has emerged as a moral and political successor to former Czech President Vaclav Havel." (Bruce Jackson, Chairman of the U.S. NATO Committee)
"Vīķe-Freiberga's charisma is unquestioned. She confidently slugged it out with Tim Sebastian, host of the BBC television program "Hard Talk", in her 2000 interview." (J.Michael Lyons, The Baltic Times)
"What is this story about? It is about a spiritually-free person surrounded by those obsessed with power. About a person who has come to serve Latvia, not for the sake of power, but in the name of freedom. Let that then be our title - "In the Name of Freedom", so that we may understand now, and always." (Ausma Cimdiņa)
