Description

Lightweight yet Machiavellian. Frivolous but intense .Socialist and fascist. Devious yet charming. Communist while Caesar. Both traitor and savior combined. Rarely have such contradictory descriptives been attached to a single man. But at one time or another, each was tagged to Franklin Delano Roosevelt, perhaps the most influential political figure of the 20th century.Here for the very first time in one volume: a visual road map through the extraordinarily rich timeline of FDR's life, charting step-by-illustrated-step his amazing progression from pampered youth to 32nd president of the United States. Meticulously compiled from more than 70 large-format, digitally restored period photos - some never before published, and most with extended captions - FDR: A Life in Pictures documents as no other book can the remarkable living legacy of Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
