Download or read book First Mothers written by Bonnie Angelo and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-02-06 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this highly acclaimed book, Bonnie Angelo celebrates a group of remarkable women who played a pivotal role in developing the characters of the modern American presidents — their mothers. Angelo, a veteran reporter and writer for TIME magazine, explores the lives, thoughts and feelings of these women who so influenced the twentieth century’s most powerful leaders. From the aristocratic and formidable Sara Delano Roosevelt to diehard Democrat Martha Truman, from stoic Hannah Milhous Nixon to the hard-living Virginia Clinton Kelly, First Mothers is an in-depth look at the special mother-son relationship that has nurtured America’s presidents and helped them to achieve great things. A veteran correspondent at TIME magazine and the first woman to head a TIME foreign bureau, Bonnie Angelo has reported on the White House and presidential families throughout eight administrations. As a Washington correspondent and bureau chief in London and New York, she has covered newsmakers and major events in all fifty states and around the world. “A fascinating book, gracefully written ... gives the reader fresh insights into how the characters and values of our recent presidents were shaped.” — Washington Post Book World

Download or read book My Dear President written by Gerard W. Gawalt and published by Black Dog & Leventhal. This book was released on 2006-02-06 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My Dear President is a historic, heartfelt collection of letters between first ladies and presidents -- including many that have never been published -- that casts a warm, new light on our leaders at their most open-hearted and vulnerable. "I am very madly in love with you," wrote Lyndon Johnson to his future wife, Bird Taylor. James Madison sent off this plaintive line to his wife Dolley: "Every thing around and within reminds me that you are absent." In this inspiring collection of correspondence between U.S. presidents and their wives are hundreds of unguarded moments of affection, strain, grief, and triumph, revealing as never before the private thoughts and working partnerships of our most public figures. Culled from the holdings of the Library of Congress and various presidential libraries and private collections, it is the most comprehensive compilation of its kind ever put together. Gerard Gawalt, a curator of presidential papers at the Library of Congress for the past thirty years, has divided the book thematically into such topics as love, war, politics, travel, and sorrow. Each letter appears in its entirety, with the original spelling and grammar intact, and is set in historic context for a full sense of the moment that formed its backdrop. In most cases, exchanges are included, forming an enlightening dialogue between husband and wife. Throughout, historic photographs and artwork from the Library of Congress's collection enhance the text. Like its companion volume, First Daughters, My Dear President is bound to become a cherished gift for all those interested in American history for years to come.

Download or read book Wives of the American Presidents, 2d ed. written by Carole Chandler Waldrup and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2016-04-06 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Their personalities often set the tone for Washington society, from Julia Tyler's open hospitality to Sarah Polk's somber religious devotion. Some, like Abigail Adams, had little formal schooling. Others, such as Pat Nixon and Hillary Clinton, earned college degrees. There were those who outlived their spouses as well as women who died before seeing their husbands realize their presidential dreams. In spite of differing circumstances, these presidential wives influenced--sometimes overtly and often inadvertently--everything from domestic political agendas to foreign policy through their relationships with their husbands. This book discusses the lives and circumstances of the women who have been married to an American president. It emphasizes the relationship each wife had with her husband and the ways in which this contributed to the success or failure of his presidency. Details include birthplace, upbringing, political viewpoints and final resting place. Chapters are also included on women such as Hannah Van Buren and Jane Wyman, who although married to men who eventually became president, never became first lady.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Presidents and Their MothersIt seems to me that a work treating thus inti mately with the mother influence upon great Ameri cans is particularly appropriate at this time now, when hundreds and thousands Of mothers through out the land have made such heroic sacrifices and have exhibited such marked patriotism. The hand that rocks the cradle has ruled our nation before, and rules it today. Then, as now, it was not autocratic rule. Then, as now, it was the ia spiration of true democracy and the course chiefly responsible for everything that we are, and every thing that we hope to be. Mothers - thank God for them!

Download or read book Presidents' Wives written by Carole Chandler Waldrup and published by McFarland. This book was released on 1989 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book came to be written because of my strong belief that the wives of the Presidents are not receiving fair treatment in the media -- or in history. The Presidents' wives through the years have encouraged their husbands to discuss problems with them, been protective of their husbands when they are ill, and defended and encouraged their children. These are traits and actions common to many women. Most had individual pursuits and enjoyments as well, from painting to politics. I want my readers to get acquainted with each woman AS a woman, and as an individual.
