The Matriarch: Barbara Bush and the Making of an American Dynasty

Beloved. Susan Page has written a terrific biography of the late former First Lady Barbara Bush titled, The Matriarch: Barbara Bush and the Making of an American Dynasty. With access to decades of personal diaries and interviews with scores of people, Page offers readers a comprehensive look at this beloved woman who led a large family whose public service was exemplary. This book is no hagiography, as Page presents achievements alongside shortcomings. As with many women of her time, Barbara Bush has been undervalued and underestimated. A reader will come away from this book with a perspective about whether her husband and her son would have been elected Presidents of the United States were it not for her. Rating: Four-star (I like it) Click here to purchase The Matriarch from amazon.com.
