Summary: America's high divorce rate is well known. But little attention has been paid to the flip side: couples who creatively (sometimes clandestinely) manage to build marriages that are lasting longer than we ever thought possible. What's their secret? To find out, bestselling journalist Iris Krasnow interviewed more than 200 wives whose marriages have survived for 15 to 70 years. For anyone who wants to stay married and sane, this is the book to read.
Notes: Originally published: New York : Gotham Books, c2011.
