About the Book:This memorable book offers an intimate glimpse into the life of one of America's most admired First Ladies. Known for her sharp wit, grace, and strong principles, Bush takes readers on a journey through her personal and political life, with candid reflections on pivotal moments in U.S. history, her family, and her own experiences as both the wife and mother of U.S. Presidents. The memoir opens with her early years, detailing her upbringing, education, and the beginnings of her lifelong marriage to George H. W. Bush. She reflects fondly on their courtship during World War II and the trials of early parenthood. The most poignant parts of the book involve the tragic loss of their daughter, Robin, to leukemia at age three, a loss that deeply affected the Bush family and gave Barbara a profound empathy for others in similar situations. As the Bush family climbed the political ladder, Barbara navigated life in the public eye, supporting her husband’s campaigns for Congress, Vice President, and ultimately the presidency. One of the highlights is her recollection of the Reagan-Bush administration years, where she provides a behind-the-scenes view of the White House, including her work on literacy campaigns and her efforts to bring attention to issues like AIDS and homelessness. The memoir also touches on the 1992 presidential campaign and George Bush’s loss to Bill Clinton, which Barbara approaches with grace and realism. Throughout the book, she maintains her trademark humor and honesty, making the memoir not only a historical account but also a deeply personal one. Barbara Bush’s reflections on family, public service, and the role of women in politics shine throughout, making this a memorable and insightful read. About Barbara Bush:Barbara Bush (June 8, 1925 – April 17, 2018) was the first lady of the United States from 1989 to 1993, as the wife of the 41st president of the United States, George H. W. Bush. She was previously the second lady of the United States from 1981 to 1989, and founded the Barbara Bush Foundation for Family Literacy. Among her children are George W. Bush, the 43rd president of the United States, and Jeb Bush, the 43rd governor of Florida. She and Abigail Adams are the only two women to be the wife of one U.S. president and the mother of another. At the time she became first lady, she was the second oldest woman to hold the position, behind only Anna Harrison, who never lived in the capital. Bush was generally popular as first lady, recognized for her apolitical grandmotherly image. Copyright © 2018-2024 TDM Inc. The photos and text in this listing are copyrighted.
