Author: Ruth Ayrault Sibley
Seller: Eclectibles (United States)

Description: New York, New York, 1916. Very good. Boards loose, binding worn.. Scrapbook of theater lover Ruth Aurault Sibley, Later Applegate, born 1891 in New Haven, Connecticut. Sibley was a kindergarten teacher in Manhattan and an extremely devoted theatergoer, judging from the present album. For each of the many performances she attended, she records in ink on the program or ticket stub the date of the show and who she attended the performance with. She appears most drawn to opera and comedies. Over fifteen venues are represented, and she pastes in newspaper clippings highlighting approx. thirty different actresses including Maude Adams, Ethel Barrymore, and Janet Dunbar. Includes approx. 300 to 350 pieces of ephemera including: dance cards, programs, magazine clippings, ticket stubs, wedding announcements and invitations, Valentine's and Christmas cards, and correspondence from students, friends and family (manuscript, telegrams and lettergrams). Highlights include two spreads of ephemera collected relating to Georgia Kane's 1913 performance in "Adele"; a spread for Alice Dovey in "The Queen of the Movies"; and a fun die-cut program for "The Dummy". Overall, the scrapbook provides a detailed look into the life of a charismatic young woman in New York between 1913 and 1916, and the city's hopping theater culture. Folio scrapbook (12" by 9.5"), approx. 75 leaves (only 5-10 unused). Bound in original half roan and pebbled cloth, spine stamped in blind and gold.

It says that all American mothers hope that their child will grow up to be President of the United States. In my case that certainly is a myth. I never dreamed that any of ours would; there were days when I hoped they'd just grow up! ... But on January 20, 2001 ... there we were sitting on the west side of the United States Capitol, waiting for our son George W. to be sworn in as the forty-third President of the United States of America." -- from the Prologue. The author traces the eight years between the presidencies of her husband and son, discussing her charity work, relationships with her children and grandchildren, and her family's reactions to September 11 and its aftermath. "There is a myth in the United States -- you've heard it many times. It says that all American mothers hope that their child will grow up to be President of the United States. In my case that certainly is a myth. I never dreamed that any of ours would; there were days when I hoped they'd just grow up! ... But on January 20, 2001 ... there we were sitting on the west side of the United States Capitol, waiting for our son George W. to be sworn in as the forty-third President of the United States of America." -- from the Prologue. “This inspiring follow-up to Barbara Bush’s number one best-selling memoir covers the momentous eight years between President George H. W. Bush’s leaving office and President George W. Bush’s inauguration. Not since Abigail Adams has one woman been both the wife and mother to a president. Barbara Bush's prominent place in American history is matched by her extraordinary popularity: Republicans and Democrats alike appreciate her wit, her compassion, and her devotion to her family. Dignified, loyal, and unpretentious, Barbara Bush defied skeptics to become one of the most admired First Ladies in history; she remains a beloved public figure today. Reflections begins with the inauguration of her son President George W. Bush, in January 2001, and then flashes back eight years to President Clinton's inauguration, when she and her husband President George H.W. Bush were leaving the White House. Drawing on excerpts from her diary, Mrs. Bush chronologically takes us through this time in her life. She reveals her and her husband's inner lives through sometimes touching and often hilarious stories about their extensive travels, their hobbies, and their charity work. She discusses her experiences on the campaign trail with her sons and relates her continuing interactions with VIPs from around the world. Mrs. Bush also reflects on the experience of having a president for a son and discusses the family's reactions to September 11, 2001, and its aftermath. Reflections will delight Barbara Bush's millions of admirers with the former First Lady's warmth and wit, as well as with candid revelations and anecdotes from the past decade of a full and fascinating life."
