NONFICTION:  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.
