 History Review May 2, 2008
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This book fleshed out so much history that we knew or didn't know in the time frame from President Washington to President John Quincy Adams.There were political situations that were as relevant as today's newspapers. I feel it would be a fine reader for high school or early college where so many topics are brushed aside.
Rich! A great read! May 15, 2008

This is a great read, in large part because the story is told from a perspective that was ignored in the history classes I was exposed to. The women who lived during this period in our country's history were historians in their own right - recording history, and their thoughts on those events, in letters that luckily survived to this day. Cokie Roberts has a writing style that is easy and engaging and keeps the reader wanting to know more. This is the most enjoyable book devoted to history that I've ever read. Well done!

Cokie Roberts is a wonderful writer, always showing insights in her characters that make them more real than history paints them. Her writing moves right along and holds your interest. I always look forward to her books.
