Thirty-two years later, Alices first cousin Eleanor moved into the White House as First Lady. The two women had been born eight months and twenty blocks apart in New York City, spent much of their childhoods together, and were far more alike than most historians acknowledge. But their politics and personalities couldnt have been more distinct.Democratic icon Eleanor was committed to social justice and hated the limelight; Republican Alice was an opponent of big government who gained notoriety for her cutting remarks. The cousins liked to play up their rivalry-in the 1930s they even wrote opposing syndicated newspaper columns and embarked on competing nationwide speaking tours. When the family business is politics, winning trumps everything. Lively, intimate, and stylishly written, Hissing Cousins is a double biography of two extraordinary women whose entwined lives give us a sweeping look at the twentieth century in America.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51327804309792,"sku":"NEW1101971622","price":21.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/616xAD71tDL.jpg?v=1773172468","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/hissing-cousins-the-lifelong-rivalry-of-eleanor-roosevelt-and-alice-roosevelt-longworth-1101971622","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
