Blanche Wiesen Cook Quotes
It's interesting to me that really one of the first things she Eleanor Roosevelt did as First Lady was to collect her father's letters and publish a book called The Letters of My Father, essentially, hunting big game, The Letters of Elliott Roosevelt.

And publishing his letters, reconnecting with her childhood really fortified her to go on into the difficult White House years.
