Book excerpt: In this highly acclaimed book, Bonnie Angelo celebrates a group of remarkable women who played a pivotal role in developing the characters of the modern American presidents — their mothers. Angelo, a veteran reporter and writer for TIME magazine, explores the lives, thoughts and feelings of these women who so influenced the twentieth century’s most powerful leaders. From the aristocratic and formidable Sara Delano Roosevelt to diehard Democrat Martha Truman, from stoic Hannah Milhous Nixon to the hard-living Virginia Clinton Kelly, First Mothers is an in-depth look at the special mother-son relationship that has nurtured America’s presidents and helped them to achieve great things. A veteran correspondent at TIME magazine and the first woman to head a TIME foreign bureau, Bonnie Angelo has reported on the White House and presidential families throughout eight administrations. As a Washington correspondent and bureau chief in London and New York, she has covered newsmakers and major events in all fifty states and around the world. “A fascinating book, gracefully written ... gives the reader fresh insights into how the characters and values of our recent presidents were shaped.” — Washington Post Book World

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Presidents and Their MothersIt seems to me that a work treating thus inti mately with the mother influence upon great Ameri cans is particularly appropriate at this time now, when hundreds and thousands Of mothers through out the land have made such heroic sacrifices and have exhibited such marked patriotism. The hand that rocks the cradle has ruled our nation before, and rules it today. Then, as now, it was not autocratic rule. Then, as now, it was the ia spiration of true democracy and the course chiefly responsible for everything that we are, and every thing that we hope to be. Mothers - thank God for them! May their sweetness and tender ness forever sway temporal power!About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: A look at the parents of the American presidents, full of facts and anecdotes as well as psychological profiles based on Wead's findings.

Using papers and letters, as well as private conversations and interviews with six presidents and first ladies, Wead focuses on the early life of George Washington; John Adams, John Quincy Adams, and the making of our nation's first political empire; the humble beginnings of our greatest president, Abraham Lincoln; the privileged upbringing of Franklin Delano Roosevelt; the ambitious rise of John Fitzgerald Kennedy; and the "quiet dynasty" led by George H.W. Bush and his son, George W. Bush.
