Expertly researched and written, Lady Bird draws from rare conversations with the former First Lady and from interviews with key members of Johnson's inner circle of friends, family, and advisers. With chapters such as \"Motherless Child,\" \"A Ten-Week Affair,\" and \"LBJ's Midlife Crisis,\" Lady Bird sheds light on Mrs. Johnson's childhood, on her amazing acumen as a businesswoman, and on the central role she played in her husband's life and political career. A vital link to the Kennedys during LBJ's uneasy tenure as vice president and a voice of conscience on civil rights, Jan Jarboe Russell reveals Lady Bird as a political force. In this intimate portrait, Russell shows us the private Lady Bird--not only a passionate conservationist but a remarkable woman who greatly influenced her husband, his administration, and the country.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jan Jarboe Russell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1501152882\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781501152887\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Scribner Book Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/04\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.00d","brand":"Jan Jarboe Russell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44045265797375,"sku":"9781501152887","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ac788081-1e40-4c07-85c5-71b59eeedf5e.jpg?v=1684977728","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/lady-bird-jan-jarboe-russell-9781501152887","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
