　　Kati Marton’s bestselling Hidden Power is an engrossing look

at twelve presidential marriages–from Edith and Woodrow Wilson to

Laura and George W. Bush–that have profoundly affected America’s

history.

Marton uncovers the behind-the-scenes dynamics of the ultimate

power couples, showing how first ladies have used their privileged

access to the president to influence staffing, promote causes, and

engage directly in policy-making. Edith Wilson secretly ran the

country after Woodrow’s debilitating stroke. Eleanor Roosevelt was

FDR’s moral compass. And Laura Bush, initially shy of any public

role, has proven to be the emotional ballast for her husband.

Through extensive research and interviews, Marton reveals the

substantial–yet often overlooked–legacy of presidential wives,

providing insight into the evolution of women’s roles in the

twentieth century and vividly depicting the synergy of these unique

political partnerships.
