Download or read book Prime Ministers' Wives written by Mark Hichens and published by Peter Owen Publishers. This book was released on 2014-07-01 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much is required of a prime minister’s wife. As a hostess, sympathetic ear and adviser, she must ensure her husband never puts a foot wrong (and never do so herself). Arguably she has one of the hardest jobs in politics – without ever stepping into the House of Commons. Of the wives from the past two centuries featured in this book, nearly all have given their husbands unqualified support in political matters, two notable exceptions being Emily Palmerston and Clementine Churchill, who were always ready to dissent. And, until Audrey Callaghan and Cherie Blair, none had careers of their own. They came from a variety of backgrounds: some, such as Emily Palmerston, Caroline Lamb, Catherine Gladstone and Dorothy Macmillan, from the ruling classes. Two - Clementine Churchill and Margot Asquith - had aristocratic connections, while Lucy Baldwin’s father was a scientist, Mary Ann Disraeli’s was a junior naval officer and Margaret Lloyd George’s a Welsh hill farmer. In terms of their marriages, some were secure, some wobbly and one actually broke down. In the case of Clementine Churchill, her marriage to Winston of fifty-seven years was a particularly remarkable achievement. Mark Hichens examines these women - and one husband, Denis Thatcher - in the light of their personalities and achievements as well as the roles they have indirectly played in British history in this timely volume.

Book excerpt: Being the wife of a Canadian prime minister offers both rewards and challenges.

Beginning with Isabella Clark Macdonald and ending with Sophie Gregoire Trudeau, this collection of thirteen biographical sketches reveals how the role of the wife of Canadian prime ministers has developed throughout the years. Fercho depicts how each wife coped with the battles and intrusions they faced at the prime minister's residence at 24 Sussex Drive.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writing about the world she knows intimately, Susan Crosland, in her incisive and powerful new novel, exposes the effect of political power on marriage and love in today's Britain. Blanche Winslow, a Virginian, passionately loving and loyal by nature, meets and marries an idealistic young Englishman called Luke Dalton. He rises to become the British Prime Minister. Blanche, herself childless, becomes a top Fleet Street interviewer. In the love-hate relationship between politicians and the media, Blanche finds herself increasingly disillusioned by her husband's behaviour as Prime Minister. Her rebellion is encouraged by a growing friendship with Mark Fleetwood, the most articulate of Luke Dalton's press critics. Luke puts her disloyalty down to the self-destructive streak in her family. The Prime Minister and wife present a united front when dining at Buckingham Palace. But behind the scenes, conflicting loyalties, illicit love, violence and treachery are played out inside Numbers Ten and Eleven Downing Street, in the Chancellor's country house at Dorneywood, in the Foreign Secretary's private office. Back in Fleet Street, Blanche decides to break the final taboo.

Book Synopsis Paul, Women, and Wives by : Craig S. Keener
Download or read book Paul, Women, and Wives written by Craig S. Keener and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 1992-06-01 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul's letters stand at the center of the dispute over women, the church, and the home, with each side championing passages from the Apostle. Now, in a challenging new attempt to wrestle with these thorny texts, Craig Keener delves as deeply into the world of Paul and the apostles as anyone thus far. Acknowledging that we must take the biblical text seriously, and recognizing that Paul's letters arose in a specific time and place for a specific purpose, Keener mines the historical, lexical, cultural, and exegetical details behind Paul's words about women in the home and ministry to give us one of the most insightful expositions of the key Pauline passages in years.
