Best Generals in US History?

[Laurie Verge]

With Mrs. Eliza Johnson, two sons, two daughters, and one son-in-law living in the White House, how did Andrew manage to hide his escapades? I know that JFK, Lyndon Johnson, Bill Clinton, and others have been accused of playing around; but they all had wives who were doing their own thing and traveling a lot.

These postings made me curious about Mrs. Andrew Johnson, so I did a little online research about her. This was one sharp lady who just happened to be hampered by tuberculosis. She didn't stay locked up in that second floor room like most authors claim. She was certainly not the equal to our modern First Ladies, but few of the 19th century were.

I found the best information on Eliza McCardle Johnson on the site for the National First Ladies Library in Canton, Ohio. I even found a trivia question that I am posting on that thread.
