Why They Stay (Second Edition)

"Why They Stay" explores the hidden motivations and strategic decisions of eight political wives, revealing how they navigate power, ambition, and personal sacrifice. Drawing from extensive research and historical patterns, veteran journalist Anne Michaud uncovers the often complex and calculated reasons behind why these women, from Melania Trump to Eleanor Roosevelt, choose to remain by their spouses' sides. The book offers an insightful look into the inner lives of women who, rather than being passive, are often shrewd and determined players in the political arena.
