Lady Bird and Lyndon: The Hidden Story of a Marriage
Betty Boyd Caroli
Marriage is the most underreported story in political life and yet is often the key to its success. This is the idea driving a revealing new portrait of Lady Bird as the essential strategist, fundraiser, barnstormer, peacemaker, and ballast for Lyndon. A biography of a political partnership that helps explain how the wildly talented but deeply flawed Lyndon Baines Johnson ended up making history.
