Book Synopsis The Intimate Lives of the Founding Fathers by : Thomas Fleming
Download or read book The Intimate Lives of the Founding Fathers written by Thomas Fleming and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-14 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compelling, intimate look at the founders—George Washington, Ben Franklin, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Alexander Hamilton, and James Madison—and the women who played essential roles in their lives With his usual storytelling flair and unparalleled research, Tom Fleming examines the women who were at the center of the lives of the founding fathers. From hot-tempered Mary Ball Washington to promiscuous Rachel Lavien Hamilton, the founding fathers' mothers powerfully shaped their sons' visions of domestic life. But lovers and wives played more critical roles as friends and often partners in fame. We learn of the youthful Washington's tortured love for the coquettish Sarah Fairfax, wife of his close friend; of Franklin's two "wives," one in London and one in Philadelphia; of Adams's long absences, which required a lonely, deeply unhappy Abigail to keep home and family together for years on end; of Hamilton's adulterous betrayal of his wife and then their reconciliation; of how the brilliant Madison was jilted by a flirtatious fifteen-year-old and went on to marry the effervescent Dolley, who helped make this shy man into a popular president. Jefferson's controversial relationship to Sally Hemings is also examined, with a different vision of where his heart lay. Fleming nimbly takes us through a great deal of early American history, as his founding fathers strove to reconcile the private and public, often beset by a media every bit as gossip seeking and inflammatory as ours today. He offers a powerful look at the challenges women faced in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. While often brilliant and articulate, the wives of the founding fathers all struggled with the distractions and dangers of frequent childbearing and searing anxiety about infant mortality—Jefferson's wife, Martha, died from complications following labor, as did his daughter. All the more remarkable, then, that these women loomed so large in the lives of their husbands—and, in some cases, their country.

Excerpt from book: APPENDIX I THE PLANTATION LIFE OF A VIRGINIA GIRL IN THE EIGHTEENTH CENTURY WHAT kind of life Sally Cary had led as a girl at Ceelys may be illustrated by the record of that of her niece and namesake on her father's plantation of Towlston in Fairfax County, a generation later. Sally, daughter of Bryan Fairfax and Elizabeth Cary (see note 17), was born in 1760 and died before she was eighteen. She had the spirit which was the charm of her aunt. Her childish diary of life at Towlston in January, 1772 (when she was twelve years old), which has survived among family papers, is the only record of a short career, but it leaves her reader in no uncertainty as to the kind of little lady she was: On thursday the 26 of decem mama made 6 mince pyes and 7 custards 12 tarts I chicking pye and 4 pud- ings for the ball. miss molly payn and mr perce baillis and mr wil- liam payn and mr william Sandford, mr mody and miss Jenny, a man who lives at Colchester Mr hurst, Mrs. hurst's husband, young harry gunnell son of oldwilliam gunnell John seal from the little falls.

Book Synopsis Affairs of State by : Robert P. Watson
Download or read book Affairs of State written by Robert P. Watson and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2012 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Eliot Spitzer, John Edwards, Newt Gingrich, Herman Cain, and countless other politicians have made headlines for their sexual scandals. But such stories are not new. Indeed, there is a long history of misbehavior in politics, including in the nation's highest office. Bill Clinton, it can safely be said, was not the first president to misbehave, nor was he the worst. In fact, there is a long history of presidential peccadilloes. Many presidents have been influenced and had their careers affected by the hand of a woman, sometimes that of a wife or mother, but at other times that of a mistress. But these stories are rarely told. Instead, history has tended to glorify our leaders. Such a scrubbed version of the lives of presidents, however, omits their marital woes, love lives, and sexual peccadilloes. As Robert P. Watson reveals, it is precisely these intimate and all-too-human moments that provide some of the most valuable insights into our leaders. Affairs of State is not just about sex and scandal--the "who did it" of history--although such incidents are described in detail. It is a book about love, marriage, and affairs in the White House, offering an intimate character study of the First Couples who made history.

Download or read book Martha Washington written by Helen Bryan and published by Turner Publishing Company. This book was released on 2007-08-03 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A contempary anecdote not only confirms that Martha commanded respect in her own right during her lifetime, but also suggests an awkward truth later historians have preferred to ignore-that without Martha and her fortune, George might never have risen to social, military, and political prominence.Toward the end of his life, George Washington, war hero, retired president, and object of universal fame and veneration, was negotiating to purchase a plot of land in the new capital city, to be named in his honor. The seller, an aged veteran of the Revolution, was reluctant to part with the plot, even to so distinguished a purchaser. Washington persisted until the veteran's patience snapped: 'You think people take every grist that comes from you as the pure grain. What would you have been if you hadn't married the Widow Custis!' " -from the Introduction to Martha Washington: First Lady of Liberty From the glittering social life of Virginia's wealthiest plantations to the rigors of winter camps during the American Revolution, Martha Washington was a central figure in some of the most important events in American history. Her story is a saga of social conflict, forbidden love affairs, ambiguous wills, mysterious death, heartbreaking loss, and personal and political triumph. Every detail is brought to vivid life in this engaging and astonishing biography of one of the best known, least understood figures in early American life.
