My mother wrote this book. It took her forty-four years... Three
generations of Americans grew up reading Ann Landers. Her advice
guided and inspired millions. Now, by reading the letters she wrote
to her daughter, everyone who loved her column can get to know the
woman behind the famous name. Ann Landers was born Eppie Lederer to
immigrant parents in Iowa, but her extraordinary success would
bring her into the world of the rich, the famous, and the talented.
She met with popes and presidents and socialized with the best and
brightest of her generation. And she told her daughter all about it
as she opined on world-changing events and candidly spoke of her
love life after her divorce, as well as her innermost feelings
about her identical twin, "Dear Abby," and their long-standing
feud. Witty and often hilarious, passionate, and, of course,
brimming with sound advice, Ann Landers in Her Own Words is a
portrait of an American original whose profound influence still
resonates today. This book brings back the voice and spirit of the
woman who helped ninety million people greet the day and forever
changed us with her immortal words: "Wake up and smell the coffee."
