In the third volume of his series on Franklin Roosevelt, the Pulitzer Prize–winning historian focuses on the turbulent final years…
of FDR&’s first term.A measure of economic recovery revived political conflict and emboldened Roosevelt&’s critics to denounce &“that man in the White house.&” To his left were demagogues—Huey Long, Father Coughlin, and Dr. Townsend. To his right were the champions of the old order—ex-president Herbert Hoover, the American Liberty League, and the august Supreme Court. For a time, the New Deal seemed to lose its momentum. But in 1935 FDR rallied and produced a legislative record even more impressive than the Hundred Days of 1933—a set of statutes that transformed the social and economic landscape of American life. In 1936 FDR coasted to reelection on a landslide. Schlesinger has his usual touch with colorful personalities and draws a warmly sympathetic portrait of Alf M. Landon, the Republican candidate of 1936.&“One of the most important historical enterprises of our time.&”—Saturday Review &“Vividly portrays…the concluding years of Roosevelt&’s first term…[and] the sweep and excitement of an era more historically dramatic than most.&”—TimeYoga Games for Kids: 30 Fun Activities to Encourage Mindfulness, Build Strength, and Create Calm
