A touching, sympathetic portrait of a successful marriage despite the agony and the stress, emphasizing Lady Bird Johnson's spectacular inner grit. As an accomplished biographer of several works on presidential wives, Caroli does an impressive job refuting the "doormat" reputation of a humiliated wife to a coarse, philandering Texan by underscoring the symbiotic relationship that mutually sustained the couple through their whole lives. Well done. An engaging dual biography of a most intriguing power couple.--Kirkus
