First Lady Betty Ford will long be remembered for her active
support of the Equal Rights Amendment, her struggles with
breast cancer and substance abuse, and her later involvement
with the addiction treatment center that bears her name. But
perhaps more than these, Betty Ford will stand as a paragon of
candor and courage, an outspoken woman whose public positions
did not always conform with those of her husband.
An independent, free spirit who regularly ranks among the
most-admired First Ladies, Betty Ford is considered by many to
be the most outspoken since Eleanor Roosevelt: she spoke her
mind publicly and frequently, sometimes sending the president's
political advisors running for cover. This is the first book to
address the successes and failures of her advocacy, the effect
of her candor, and the overall impact of her brief tenure as
First Lady.
John Robert Greene traces Betty Ford's problems and triumphs
from her childhood through her husband's entire political
career, including his controversial presidency, which thrust
her into an unrelenting media spotlight. He then tells how she
confronted her personal demons and became a symbol of courage
for women throughout the nation.
Contrasting the sometimes harsh assessments of historians with
the respect in which she continues to be held, Greene examines
Betty Ford's outspoken opinions on abortion and women's rights
and suggests that her views hampered Gerald Ford's ability to
forge a coalition within the GOP and may well have been a
factor in his presidential defeat. Afterwards, as the author
highlights, Betty Ford remained a role model for people
suffering from addictions and personal pain, and made seminal
contributions in the field of public advocacy for women's
health issues and substance abuse. The Betty Ford Center
especially stands as a lasting tribute to her foresight and
caring.
Greene concludes that, while Gerald Ford wanted to restore an
aura of honesty to the presidency, in many ways it was his wife
who accomplished this instead. His book, the first to draw upon
her papers at the Ford Library, captures her courage and candor
and tells why she will always be remembered—for who, not
what, she was.
