Loving Eleanor, The Intimate Friendship of Eleanor Roosevelt and Lorena Hickok, by Susan Wittig Albert is historical fiction based on the lives of these two extraordinary women and their decades long relationship, hidden because of the times and because of Eleanor's position as First Lady.
Researching over 3000 letters written back and forth between the two, Albert has written a beautiful book illuminating the lives of these very fascinating women, and full of historic details of the times. A worthwhile read for fans of Eleanor Roosevelt.
