Book Review of A Perfect Union: Dolley Madison and the Creation of the American Nation, by Catherine Allgor, Henry Holt & Co. A FASCINATING LOOK INTO THE LIFE AND TIMES OF DOLLEY MADISONI picked up a copy of A Perfect Union: Dolley Madison and the Creation of the American Nation, by Catherine Allgor as research material for a novel set during the War of 1812. I had already read The Velvet Glove: A Life of Dolley Madison, by Noel Bertram Gerson, but I wanted more detail and insight regarding President and Mrs. Madison. I wasn't disappointed. A Perfect Union is packed full . . .
