Barbara Bush : presidential matriarch

Author:	Myra G Gutin
Publisher:	Lawrence, Kan. : University Press of Kansas, ©2008.
Series:	Modern first ladies.
Edition/Format:	Book : Biography : State or province government publication : EnglishView all editions and formats
Summary:	"This new look at Barbara Bush draws on recently opened records at the Bush library, the first lady's many speeches, interviews with her staff, and an exclusive interview with Mrs. Bush to impart a new appreciation for this beloved former first lady. And while other biographies - and her own memoir - have hinted at seeming contradictions in the Barbara Bush persona, Myra Gutin looks squarely at her White House years to set the record straight and show that she was more than "Americas Grandmother" in faux pearls." "Gutin argues that Barbara was more politically astute than George - even though she denied any input into policymaking and maintained an apolitical image. In fact, she played an integral role in campaigning, fund-raising, and other activities that often blurred the line between the humanitarian and the political. Piercing through the first lady's public persona, Gutin reveals Barbara's backstage political skills in action - along with her closely held views on social issues like gun control and abortion."--BOOK JACKET.  Read more...
