The “American Princess: A Novel of First Daughter Alice Roosevelt” is an interesting historical fiction book. Stephanie Marie Thornton is the author of this book. This is one of the better books of historical fiction. It is an absolutely fabulous book to read as the author’s writing shines thanks to her brilliant characterizations, lively writing, and documented historical research. It is a wonderfully written and compelling work of historical fiction that tells the story of Alice Roosevelt Long-worth, President Theodore Roosevelt’s eldest daughter and an icon in twentieth-century American politics. Alice may be the president’s daughter, but she’s nobody’s darling. As bold as her signature colour Alice Blue, the gum-chewing, cigarette-smoking, poker-playing First Daughter discovers that the only way for a woman to stand out in Washington is to make waves oceans of them. With the canny sophistication of the savviest politician on the Hill, Alice uses her celebrity to her advantage, testing the limits of her power and the seductive thrill of political entanglements. But Washington, DC is rife with heartaches and betrayals, and when Alice falls hard for a smooth-talking congressman it will take everything this rebel has to emerge triumphantly and claim her place as an American icon. As Alice soldiers through the devastation of two world wars and brazens out a cutting feud with her famous Roosevelt cousins, it’s no wonder everyone in the capital refers to her as the Other Washington Monument and Alice intends to outlast them all. Overall, Thornton has written another outstanding book.
