First Mothers
The Women Who Shaped the Presidents

By Bonnie Angelo

Bonnie Angelo, a veteran reporter and writer for TIME, has captured the daily lives, thoughts, and feelings of the remarkable women who played such a large role in developing the characters of the modern American presidents. From formidably aristocratic Sara Delano Roosevelt to diehard Democrat Martha Truman, champion athlete Dorothy Bush, and hard-living Virginia Clinton Kelley, Angelo blends these women’s stories with the texture of their lives and with colorful details of their times. FIRST MOTHERS is an in-depth look at the special mother-son relationships that nurtured and helped propel the
last twelve American presidents to the pinnacle of power.

This book certainly should be on your "must read" list. It gives you insight into not only the presidents, but the mothers who raised them to become great men.
