Madam Secretary, Frances Perkins

Average review score:

Not worth the read
Frances Perkins was a very interesting lady, one of the first female Cabinet members and an innovator of social legislation in America. This book unfornutely doesn't go too far in depth into her character, serving as neither history nor biography. Martin instead focuses on nonimportant anecdotes, which make for a few good moments, but hardly a good book overall.

A brilliantly written biography
George Martin has written a deeply intelligent, very well researched, scholarly biography of Perkins. Using Perkins' Papers at Columbia University he offers eloquent antedote as well as well constructed historical context for Perkins' contributions & life. Superbly written, wonderfully scholarly, well worth the read.
