This book introduces young readers to the life of Harriet Lane, beginning with her experience as an orphan and her childhood near Lancaster, Pennsylvania.

Details of Miss Lane's time as First Lady, including her support of Native Americans, her love of art, and the coming American Civil War, are also discussed. Additionally, the book highlights her years after President Buchanan's term, including her time as a wife and a mother, and finally, her legacy in the founding of the Harriet Lane Home and her contribution of art to the Smithsonian Institution.
