Barbara Bush: A Memoir

Barbara Bush: A Memoir is a 1994 memoir by Barbara Bush, the wife of U.S. President George H. W. Bush. It was published as a Lisa Drew book by Charles Scribner's Sons.^[1]^[2]^[3]

American film critic Lisa Schwarzbaum in a review for Entertainment Weekly suggested that the memoir allowed the First Lady to reveal her true feelings on current events by subtly criticizing others.^[4] Schwartzbam wrote that her "blithe imperiousness and deft passive aggression" was used as a powerful weapon to comment on the lives and activities of political figures and celebrities like Jesse Jackson, Rosalynn Carter, and Cher.
