In Growing Pains of America, the Madisons navigate an era marked by growing pains and political distress: Before James and Dolley became famous as Washington City's first power couple, James was a member of the House of Representatives during his Excellency George Washingtons presidency. While the government was established in Philadelphia, English and French aggression loomed; the French Revolution tested the limits of monarchial v. democratic rule; the United States experienced the first peaceful transfer of Presidential power; and saw the emergence of the two-party system: the Federalist and Democratic-Republican Parties, which divided political loyalties. While the politics were divisive, the social scene was rich and vibrant and Dolley honed the skills and savvy that would ultimately define the role of the First Lady of the United States of America.
