Bringing together the work of notable historians, political
scientists, and sociologists, ""The Presidential Companion"" is a
collection that demonstrate the political relevance of first ladies
throughout U.S. history and the dramatic expansion of their power
during the twentieth century. This anthology fills a gap in
scholarship about the position of first lady and reveals the
political acumen and activism of a number of the holders of this
unofficial executive office. The contributors reveal how the office
has grown in political influence, from Martha Washington's
selection of furnishings for the presidential mansion to Hillary
Rodham Clinton's leadership of the President's Task Force on
National Health Care Reform. Bringing this second edition up to
date are two new chapters on the first ladyship of Laura Bush and
on analyzing public perceptions of Laura Bush and Hillary Clinton.
