Summary |
While many volumes honor the lives and terms of the American First Ladies, this volume is different in that it admires their beauty. Examining several portraits from several collections around the nation, this book describes the appearances of not only George Washington's mother, Mary, and his wife, Martha, but of his early love, Ms. Mary Phillipse. |
