Susan Eisenhower writes with sensitivity and insight about her grandmother and brings Mamie to life with fine vignettes and anecdotes. I am lost in admiration for both the subject and her granddaughter-biographer and I recommend Mrs. Ike without reservation" Stephen E. Ambrose. Farrar, Straus and Giroux hardcover
