Henrietta Boggs-MacGuire, originally from Birmingham, Alabama and now residing in Montgomery is the 1st First Lady of Costa Rica. Married to a Legend, Don Pepe is the autobiography of Dona Henrietta's life during her time in Costa Rica and marriage to Don Pepe Figueres, former President of Costa Rica. From a young student at Birmingham Southern College to the first, First Lady of the Second Republic of Costa Rica, Henrietta propels us into her life of adventure, marriage, exile, motherhood, revolution, and leadership in this remarkable memoir. It begins in 1940 when Dona Henrietta received a postcard from an aunt and uncle who had settled in Costa Rica after living in several Latin American countries. After falling in love with the postcard, the audacious young Henrietta started one of her many astounding life journeys, literally following the card to Costa Rica. The rest as they say, is history-literally.

While visiting an aunt and uncle in the exotic countryside of Costa Rica, a young Southern Belle from Alabama accepted a ride on the back of a motorcycle driven by a charismatic local farmer - a ride that would propel her down narrow mountain roads and into history.Married to a Legend: My Life with Don Pepe is the remarkable autobiography of Henrietta Boggs-MacGuire, who met and married the man who would transform Costa Rica. With Do�a Henrietta at his side, Jos� "Don Pepe" Figueres' 1948 Revolution ended not in a military dictatorship, but in a lasting model democracy and economic success in a region known for neither. Their love story marked the beginning of an era that ushered in dramatic reforms - including abolishing the military, giving women and minorities the right to vote and participate in the political process, and laying the groundwork for the high literacy rates and environmental policies that exist in Costa Rica today.Henrietta's rare and riveting eyewitness account of hemisphere-rocking events is now the inspiration for the award-winning documentary, First Lady of the Revolution.
