From an early age, Selina, an active, curious, happy-go-lucky child, showed an uncanny ability to relate to others and to solve their real-world problems with real-world solutions. In this she was inspired by her idol: feminist, humanitarian, stateswoman, and first lady, Eleanor Roosevelt.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEleanor Roosevelt maintained a lively relationship with many prominent figures of her time, including Adlai Stevenson, John F. Kennedy, Albert Schweitzer, and probably Pablo Casals. She inspired countless women to break out of the established roles for women in society, among them the pioneering aviatrix Amelia Earhart, with whom she flew several times.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDubbed the \"Queen of the Air,\" Amelia Earhart captivated the nation both with her bravery, skill, and daring when flying her planes and when challenging society's hidebound attitudes as to what constituted a proper place for women. America mourned when she disappeared mysteriously somewhere in the Pacific during an attempted around-the-world flight in 1937. Speculation continues to this day as to Amelia's ultimate fate, even as hope has faded that she may yet be found alive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith wit, wisdom, eloquence, and fearless honesty, Selina Meyer reveals for the first time what really goes on in the halls of power, including the ultimate hall, the White House. It's all here: The triumphs, the tragedies, the personalities, and the momentous events that have shaped our times, brought together in a page-turning tale told as only Selina Meyer could tell it. Selina Meyer's compassion, her sense of humor, her grace, and her uncommon willingness to bare her heart make this story revelatory, beautifully rendered, and unlike any other president's memoir ever written.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eA Woman First: First Woman: A Memoir\u003c\/i\u003e would be a fitting title for a book about Selina Meyer, Eleanor Roosevelt, or Amelia Earhart, but in this case, it is about Selina Meyer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Selina Meyer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1419733532\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781419733536\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Harry N.
