520 |a When Theodore Roosevelt became president in 1901, his flamboyant daughter was transformed into "Princess Alice," arguably the century's first global celebrity. Thirty-two years later, her first cousin Eleanor moved into the White House as First Lady. Born eight months and twenty blocks apart from each other in New York City, Eleanor and Alice spent a large part of their childhoods together, but their politics and temperaments couldn't have been more distinct. Peyser and Dwyer reveal the contentious bond between two political trailblazers who short-circuited the rules of gender and power, each in her own way.
