Product Information
This first thoroughly researched appraisal of Hoover's tenure as first lady (1929-1933) argues that she was the first modern presidential wife because of her use of radio, adoption of social causes, and public activism outside White House traditions.

Reviews
"Lou Henry Hoover was a paradoxical public figure: a self-effacing activist, an unconventional conservative, an innovator wrongly remembered as a standpatter. Young's perceptive and illuminating study rescues this enigmatic and accomplished First Lady from the shadows of undeserved obscurity."-- George H. Nash , author of Life of Herbert Hoover "Young brings Hoover out of the shadow of her successor and gives her the credit she deserves for being an activist, a progressive, and a national leader."-- Timothy Walch , director, Hoover Presidential Library, "Young's work combines meticulous research with good analysis to create a vivid portrait of a sympathetic, interesting, and unfairly overlooked pioneer among the high-achieving women of our time."- The Weekly Standard, "Adds significantly to our understanding of the office of first lady, women's political activism, and the contested and changing views of womanhood in the early twentieth century. . . . [This book] importantly places Hoover back in her rightful place."-- Journal of Illinois History, "A detailed and thoughtful biography of Lou Henry Hoover's White House years from 1929 to 1933."-- Annals of Iowa "Adds significantly to our understanding of the office of first lady, women's political activism, and the contested and changing views of womanhood in the early twentieth century. . . . [This book] importantly places Hoover back in her rightful place."-- Journal of Illinois History "Young's work combines meticulous research with good analysis to create a vivid portrait of a sympathetic, interesting, and unfairly overlooked pioneer among the high-achieving women of our time."-- The Weekly Standard "This illuminating work brings into focus one of the forgotten first ladies of the 20th century. . . . For those of us looking to the early years of the 20th century for the root causes of more immediate events, this is a book that helps us to understand the forces, issues, and people who lived and labored then."-- Bloomsbury Review, Lou Henry Hoover was a paradoxical public figure: a self-effacing activist, an unconventional conservative, an innovator wrongly remembered as a standpatter.
