What goes on inside of a marriage is always a mystery. With a political marriage, even more so.    We all know the stories of the neighbors who have the apparently idyllic marriage, that ends in divorce.  Or the couple that battles incessantly, that have been together for 40 years.  These dynamics, and the psychological mechanism behind them are truly a riddle wrapped in an enigma.However, with political marriages, and with public figures, we get a better glimpse.  After the fact, we often have letters, tapes, diaries and tell-alls that become a part of the public record.  In analyzing them, we learn a lot about how the marriage worked, how it shaped the individuals and in turn how it shaped history.This is what we learn about LBJ and Lady Bird in Betty Boyd Caroli’s Lady Bird and Lyndon: The Hidden Story of a Marriage That Made a President.My conversation with Betty Boyd Caroli:

November 30, 2015 - Historian of First Ladies Betty Boyd Caroli introduces us to the diminutive, quiet woman who stood behind one of the most controversial presidents of the 20th Century through some of America's most difficult years. The book is Lady Bird & Lyndon: The Hidden Story of a Marriage that Made a President. But Clauda "Lady Bird" Johnson was more than just the flower lady. She was a shrewd business woman, and careful political tactician. Using courtship letters made available for the first time in 2013, Betty Boyd Caroli sheds light on a figure who lived such a fascinating life in her own right, that at her funeral, her husband was barely mentioned. Ms. Caroli's previous books include The Roosevelt Women: A Portrait In Five Generations, as well as, The First Ladies "From Martha Washington to Michelle Obama".  You can learn more about her work at BettyBoydCaroli.com.
