4.0 out of 5 stars Behind the scenes of a First Lady's life in politics., 2 Nov 1998
By A Customer
In this book, Barbara Bush proves that the wife of a president,vice president and politition is not alway easy. She tells many amusing stories of her expeirences with many famous people (both bad and good) and gives an insiders look at important historical events that were part of her husbands career. This book gives you a better look at the job and hectic schedule that a First Lady is responsible for (even though she is not paid.) Her viewpoints on her responsibilities as a First Lady, a Wife and Mother are refreshing. It seems like she was able to "do it all" and "have it all" and do it well. After reading this book it is easy to see why she is one of the country's favorite First Lady's.

5.0 out of 5 stars Takes you around the world while meeting famous people., 5 May 1999
By A Customer
This is a great book. You truly see what it is like to live in the political world. Barbara Bush uses humor and moving stories to show what her life was like in China, New York, Washington, D.C., and Texas. Her positive atitude towards people is truly encouraging. I look up to her.
