Scandals, Seduction, Addiction, Adultery, Horrific
Fashions—And the White House?!?
Your high school history teachers never gave you a book like this
one! Secret Lives of the First Ladies features outrageous and
uncensored profiles of the women of the White House—complete with
hundreds of little-known, politically incorrect, and downright
wacko facts. You’ll discover that:
Dolley Madison loved to chew tobacco
Mary Todd Lincoln conducted séances on a regular basis
Eleanor Roosevelt and Ellen Wilson both carried guns
Jacqueline Kennedy spent $121,000 on her wardrobe in a single
year
Betty Ford liked to chat on CB radios—her handle was “First
Mama”
Hillary Clinton dreamed of being an astronaut
And much, much more
With chapters on every woman who’s ever made it to the White House,
Secret Lives of the First Ladies tackles all of the tough questions
that other history books are afraid to ask: How many of these women
owned slaves? Which ones were cheating on their husbands? And why
was Eleanor Roosevelt serving hot dogs to the King and Queen of
England? American history was never this much fun in school!
