This is a wonderful book with information and fun facts on our First Ladies from Martha Washington to Nancy Reagan. It tells of their trials
while always being in the public eye. Some gave eleborate dinners every week, for congressman and their wives, some did not. Some President's did
not have a wife so they relied on female relatives or friends to serve as White Hous hostess. This book will give you glimpse into history through the woman's eye.
