Soft cover. Condizione: As New. 1st Edition. As new condition photographic softcover wraps. Includes Acknowledgments; List of Illustrations; Foreword; Introduction; Epilogue; Notes; Questions to Ponder and Index. Illustrated with sections of black-and-white photographs. "First Capital paperback edition, 2002." "Mrs. Ike is a work of solid scholarship, full of surprises and new documents - including never-before-seen letters from Ike (signed 'Your Lover') to Mamie.Ike and Mamie were married for a full half-century. For fifty years, except when he was off making war, they slept in the same bed. The marriage underwent such sever strains it seems almost a miracle that they stayed together, that their marriage grew stronger, that they became a team, each drawing on the other's strengths. Susan Eisenhower shows us how it was done. One is lost in admiration for both the subject and her granddaugher-biographer." - Stephen Ambrose "[Mrs. Ike] corrects the record about Mamie Eisenhower, who was a far stronger, more independent and more interesting woman than is now generally realized.It is no small measure of the love she lavished on each [family] member that one of them chose to be her biographer and to write a book as lovely and loving as this one." - Jonathan Yardley, Washington Post "In Mrs. Ike Susan Eisenhower has written a vivid memoir.Mrs. Ike helps liberate Mamie Eisenhower's image from the shadow her husband cast and from the shadings of history." - Mark Marvel, New York Times The perception [of Mamie Eisenhower] has been distorted by prejudice against a woman whose life's ambition was simply to please her husband and enjoy family and friends.Difficult as it may be these days to portray such a person sympathetically, the task becomes doubly difficult if she was married to a man who achieved greatness in public life. But human character, multifarious as it is, has provided Mamie's granddaughter the chance to write a vivid and often poignant biography.Mamie Eisenhower's main goal was in perfecting the life she shared with the man she adored. He, loving her no less, strived for perfection in his work. In this he had the ideal partner." - Sylvia Jukes Morris, Los Angeles Times "There was more to her than just those bangs!.An enlightening biography." - Booklist.

"Mrs. Ike is full of surprises and new documents, and it gives us a much fuller and fresher portrait of both Ike and Mamie than we have had before. Susan Eisenhower writes with sensitivity and insight about her grandmother, and brings Mamie to life with fine vignettes and anecdotes. I learned a great deal that was new about Ike, too. Ike and Mamie were married for a full half-century; for fifty years, except when he was off making war, they slept in the same bed. The marriage underwent such severe strains it seems almost a miracle that they stayed together, that their marriage grew steadily stronger, that they became a team, each drawing on the other's strengths. Susan Eisenhower shows us how it was done. I am lost in admiration for both the subject and her granddaughter-biographer, and I recommend Mrs. Ike without reservation." -- Stephen E. Ambrose. "Susan Eisenhower -- writer, political analyst, public speaker, career woman, -- here looks back on the life of her grandmother in a tribute that coincides with the centenary of Mamie Eisenhower's birth. In this compelling biography of an army captain's wife who becomes First Lady, she paints the portrait of an independent, headstrong woman who was passionately engaged in a lifelong relationship with a man who was her utter opposite. Mamie Doud, the saucy young debutante from Denver, certainly met her match when she encountered handsome Ike Eisenhower, the rugged farm boy straight out of West Point. It was electricity from the start, and they got engaged only months later. Although their fifty-three-year marriage was ultimately marked by public triumph and private contentedness, their lives together were not always easy. On army posts all over America, in Panama and the Philippines, in Paris and Washington, Mamie Eisenhower struggled to find her way in a military system that took dedication and self-sacrifice for granted -- just as she worked to keep her marriage on an even keel after the death of their first child, during debiltating illnesses, and in the midst of painful isolation when her husband was absorbed by work or committed to the battlefield. Yet as her granddaughter knew well, she radiated optimism, though people rarely recognized the discipline and fortitude behind her cheerfulness and her apparently effortless courtesy. In a note scrawled in 1943, Ike wrote, "Every time someone brings me news of the way you handle yourself I'm prouder of you . You are a thorobred, and incidentally, I love the hell out of you." Although Ms. Eisenhower writes with warm appreciation for her grandmother's life, she does not skirt controversy or bypass rumors. Based on a treasure trove of unpublished letters, Mrs. Ike breeaks new historical ground and provides, for the first time, a rare insight into the personalities and interrelationship of two complex people. Set against the background of some of the century's greatest events, Mrs. Ike is an American love story as well as a chronicle of "a simpler, perhaps nobler time" in American life -- a period whose special tone has all but vanished from the contemporary scene. But the human qualities are enduring ones: Susan Eisenhower helps us to see Mamie as Ike did -- a heroic and irresistible figure in her own right." -- from the inner front and rear jacket flaps. Signed by Author(s).
