The role of First Lady has been defined differently by each woman who's held it, but all of them left an impact on our nation as partner of the commander in chief. Incisive poetry by Marilyn Singer and energetic art by Nancy Carpenter provide a fascinating glimpse into the lives of women — from Martha Washington to Eleanor Roosevelt to Lady Bird Johnson — who variously embraced the position and shied away from it, craved the spotlight and fiercely guarded their privacy, took controversial stands and championed for the status quo.
This appealing and unique look at the stories of America's first ladies includes back matter with short biographies, quotations, and more.
