Why read it?
1 author picked Mr. and Mrs. President as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Out of the myriad of books analyzing presidential marriages, this volume, in my opinion, does the best job of showing an in-depth view of the Nixons’ relationship. Troy acknowledges the stereotypes and caricatures of the couple, puts these misrepresentations in context, and then reveals a much more balanced view of the Nixon marriage. He never forgets that a marriage involves both partners!
From Mary's list on why Pat Nixon was known (incorrectly) as Plastic Pat.
