*Features* Cover Type: Paperback with 856 pages Published by: University of Texas Press October 1, 2007 Written in: English ISBN 10 Number: 0292717490 ISBN 13 Number: 978-0292717497 Book Dimensions: 8.8 x 6.1 x 1.8 inches Weighs: 2.6 pounds *Product Review* New York Times : [A White House Diary] is an intensely personal document that reveals a lady who describes herself as 'terribly average--something like litmus paper' but who, in fact, is not average at all. lady Bird is remarkable for the range and depths of her loves--fierce loyalties as well as small delights--and for a physical and spiritual stamina which bore her through ordeals which would have drained lesser humans. . . . History and a great many people will remember her as a valuable woman, largely immune from the antagonisms her husband aroused, who gave the best of herself to her family and her country. Towards the end, lady Bird writes about her diary that 'Lyndon is curiously proud of it and I am touched by that. He talks more about it than I ever would.' She does not need to. It speaks, most eloquently, for itself. *Book Description* Originally published in 1970, A White House Diary is lady Bird Johnson's intimate, behind-the-scenes account of Lyndon Johnson's presidency from November 22, 1963, to January 20, 1969. Beginning with the tragic assassination of John F. Kennedy, Mrs. Johnson records the momentous events of her times, including the Great Society's War on Poverty, the national civil rights and social protest movements, her own activism on behalf of the environment, and the Vietnam War. *Reader Reviews* This review is from: White House Diary (Hardcover) Bought this book for my in law since he loves to read. He mentioned for me to give it a whirl so I did. Great details from a woman whose life itself was under a microscope. Comment \| Permalink \| (Report this) Back To Top
