White House Diary is a memoir written by Henrietta Nesbitt, who served as personal secretary to President Lyndon B. Johnson from 1967 to 1969. The book is a detailed account of her experiences working in the White House during one of the most tumultuous periods in American history, including the Vietnam War, civil rights movement, and political scandals.Nesbitt provides a unique perspective on the inner workings of the White House, including the daily routines of the president, meetings with foreign leaders, and interactions with members of Congress and the media. She also shares personal anecdotes about her relationships with the president and his family, as well as her observations about the personalities and motivations of other key figures in the administration.Throughout the book, Nesbitt offers insights into the challenges and pressures of working in the White House, including the long hours, constant scrutiny, and high-stakes decision-making. She also reflects on the impact of these experiences on her own life and career, and the lessons she learned about leadership, politics, and public service.Overall, White House Diary provides a fascinating and intimate look at one of the most consequential periods in American history, as seen through the eyes of a dedicated public servant who was at the center of it all.This is a new release of the original 1949 edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
