One day only! 25 April 2026: Bonnie Bagdon’s MRS. PRESIDENT

One hundred seventy-five years ago, during a time of great political polarization not unlike our own, the daughter of a slave-owning Kentucky household married against her family’s wishes and quickly began a campaign to make her husband the sixteenth President of the United States.

Hear Mary Todd Lincoln tell the true story of America’s first ‘power couple’ and discover how her unwavering love and support for a rough frontiersman with limited prospects changed the course of our country’s history.

Thought provoking, poignant, and historically accurate, Bonnie Bagdon’s MRS. PRESIDENT is not to be missed!
