The Lincolns in the White House: Four Years That… por Jerrold M. Packard

This was a decent look at the family life of Abraham Lincoln during his tenure in the White House as America's sixteenth president. These four years absolutely changed the family. Illness, death, war, and a divided country. That's what this family faced as they took the reigns of America's government and moved into the White House. Packard's account is very interesting and well worth reading.

Victoria's Daughters por Jerrold M. Packard

OK but quite detailed history of Victoria's 5 royal daughters and what they did. Queen Victoria lived a long life and her relatives were among several thrones in Europe, especially in Germany. Kaiser Wilhelm II of World War One was her grandson on the mother's side ! Good inside information. Some parts get a little tedious.

Victoria's Daughters por Jerrold M. Packard

Not riveting material, and I don't understand where the comments regarding the relative attractiveness of each daughter was coming from. Who decided that Lenchen is plain, for instance?

If the opinion was based off of popular accounts, that's one thing, but it seemed more personal and intrusive than that.

He did do a good job of keeping the vast numbers of family members straight, and of maintaining a timeline over a lot of different courts and countries.… (más)
