Reviews

[Chy · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book offers short biographies on some of the First Ladies. While it's outdated and only includes First Ladies up to Nancy Reagan I really enjoyed this book.

[Susan · Rating 4 out of 5]

Good book with an easy reading level for brief histories of 11 first ladies from Dolley Madison to Nancy Reagan. It was interesting to see how many of these first ladies were visitors to the White House long before they became first ladies.
