Edith Kermit Roosevelt Portrait of a First Lady
- Binding: Paperback

- Publish date: 09/01/2001
Description:
Edith Kermit Carow grew up in New York City in the same circles as Theodore Roosevelt. But only after TR's first wife died at age twenty-two did the childhood friends forge one of the most successful romantic and political partnerships in American history. Sylvia Jukes Morris's access to previously unpublished letters and diaries enhances her portrait of the Roosevelts and their times. As first lady, Edith restored the White House to its pre-Victorian elegance, and gathered artists and intellectuals around its dining tables. She dazzled social Washington as hostess and mother of six, leading her husband to remark: "Mrs. Roosevelt comes a good deal nearer my ideal than I do myself".
