"Eleanor Whitney has filled many roles. She has been a helper and companion to her doctor father, a professional singer, a wife, mother, philanthropist, a leader of fashion, and most important, a committed Christian. She has known many places and many people. Her story takes us from the small, sheltering Midwest community where she was raised to wartime Washington, D.C., the opulent north shore of Long Island, the villages of the Hopi Indians, and to Paris, Zanzibar, Egypt, and the Holy Land with numerous stops in between. We are introduced to such internationally famous people as His Highness the late Aga Khan, Princess Grace of Monaco, Terence Cardinal Cooke, Billy and Ruth Graham, as well as to the countless warm friends, colleagues, and acquaintances who have enriched her everyday life." -- Dust jacket.
