Abby Aldrich Rockefeller: The Woman in the Family Book

Nelson's beloved mother (1874-1948) was just as fascinating as he, though considerably less driven. Abby Aldrich's relaxed, worldly attitude differed markedly from the rigid Baptist views of the Rockefellers. Yet she handled her in-laws with aplomb, and her shy, reserved husband, John D.

Kert's elegant, perceptive biography does full justice to a warm-hearted, lovable woman.Read More
