From New York Times bestselling celebrity biographer J. Randy
Taraborrelli comes Grace & Steel, the epic, hidden history of
the exceptional women behind the greatest political dynasty of all
time--the Bush family. Bestselling author J. Randy Taraborrelli
reveals the unsung heroines of the inimitable Bush family dynasty:
not only First Ladies Barbara and Laura, but other colorful women
whose stories have been left out of history for far too long,
including Barbara's mother-in-law, the formidable Dorothy Bush; the
enigmatic Columba and the controversial Sharon; and Laura's twins,
Jenna and Barbara. No matter the challenges related to power and
politics, the women of the Bush dynasty always fought for equality
in their marriages as they raised their children to be true to
American values. In doing so, they inspired everyday Americans to
do the same. Or, as Barbara Bush put it, "The future of this nation
does not depend on what happens in the White House, but what
happens in your house." Details from the book include: --The
tragedy Barbara faced in burying her three-year-old daughter,
Robin, and her struggle with depression over the decades that
followed. --The tragic night a teenage Laura Bush accidentally
killed a good friend--a story she did not discuss publicly for
decades. --The revelation of the affair that almost doomed George
HW's hopes for the presidency. --The truth behind the fraught
relationship between Nancy Reagan and Barbara Bush that culminated
in an angry phone call during which Barbara told her she would
never speak to her again--and she didn't.
