When Cokie and Steve Roberts got married, some "friends" said it wouldn't last because she's Catholic and he's Jewish. In this book, Cokie and Steve discuss issues of their own marriage as well as tell tales of famous unions in history, like that of John and Abigail Adams, as seen from their different perspectives as man and wife. Conversations with contemporary couples show the foundation of marriage as one that's undergone tremendous amounts of change while remaining fundamentally the same.

About the Authors: Cokie Roberts is a political commentator for ABC News and serves as senior news analyst for National Public Radio. From 1996 to 2002, she and Sam Donaldson co-anchored the weekly ABC interview program, This Week. In addition to broadcasting, Roberts, along with her husband, Steven V. Roberts, writes a weekly column syndicated in newspapers around the country by United Media. The Robertses are also contributing editors to USA Magazine, and together they wrote From This Day Forward, an account of their more than thirty-five-year marriage and other marriages in American history. The book immediately went onto the New York Times bestseller list, following a six-month run on the list by Cokie Roberts's other book, We Are Our Mothers' Daughters.

She is the mother of two and grandmother of four.
