Book excerpt: In this candid memoir, James Schroeder shares his experience as the husband of former US congresswoman Pat Schroeder, one of the best-known women in American politics. Recounting his experience as ''Mr. Pat Schroeder,'' the author brings humor and insight to such topics as compromise in marriage, women as friends and colleagues, and the challenges and rewards of being part of a power couple. He looks at how men come to terms with today's evolving gender roles and the challenges and compromises of two-career families. James Schroeder is the husband of former congresswoman Pat Schroeder (D-CO, 1972 - 1996), whom he met at Harvard Law School. He practiced law for many years in Colorado and Washington, DC, before serving in the Clinton administration as deputy undersecretary for farm and foreign agricultural services. The Schroeders now reside in Celebration, Florida.
