A novel about the extraordinary partnership between First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt and civil rights activist Mary McLeod Bethune—an unlikely friendship that changed the world - summary from the publisher
My Thoughts: This was a really interesting read. I learned so much about both women. While it was uncomfortable at times to read, this book covered many important issues - lynching, racism, sexism, adultery, and the power of friendship. I have no doubt this will be a book club book for many libraries.
