Description
This is a compilation of more than 1,300 quotes by first ladies. The wives of every U.S. president to date are represented here in remarks, thoughts, and timeless pieces of wisdom. These are women too often overlooked. Here their true depth and complexity is revealed in their own words, clearly showing the impact and influence they had with their respective spouses. In an era when the power of the first lady is on the rise these women increasingly become a target of the media spin. In The First Ladies Quotation Book, William O. Foss presents these women in the most accurate words available--their own.
