We may acknowledge that our enemies have performed a brilliant feat of deception, perfectly timed and executed with great skill. It was a thoroughly dishonorable deed, but we must face the fact that modern warfare as conducted in the Nazi manner is a dirty business. We don't like it--we didn't want to get in it--but we are in it and we're going to fight it with everything we've got. ... Read more

1-0 out of 5 stars Disappointed
I bought this book to fill out other books I have on FDR.When I read this book I was totally disappointed as there was not as many "chats" as I expected and none held prior to large events in that time frame, such as prior to Pearl Harbor.I would rather have a refund for this is the first time I didn't get something of value out of a book I bought at Amazon.

5-0 out of 5 stars Kudlinski brings Franklin Delano Roosevelt to life.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt was born into a life of comfort --- one could almost say a life of luxury. He had a beautiful home, was tutored privately, had a pony to ride and a boat to sail, and went on European vacations. His mother had very definite ideas as to how she wanted her son to live his life, and her word was very much the law in the Roosevelt household. Franklin went to a prestigious boarding school and then on to Harvard, just as his parents wished.

It was only when he was in his twenties that he began to assert his independence. He decided that he wanted to marry the niece of the great "Teddy" Roosevelt, a relative and former President of the United States. "Mother" was not pleased with his choice but Franklin insisted.

Franklin had just begun his political career when he was struck down and crippled by polio. His mother wanted him to go to the family home where she could care for him. But Franklin was not going to let polio destroy his dreams, and he fought very hard to prove to the American public that he was strong enough to be a good candidate --- first for Governor of New York, and later for President of the United States. He was determined to show them that a person stricken with polio could still be a great leader; he was so successful in this mission that he was elected President for an unprecedented four terms. He helped pull the United States out of the dark years of the Depression and led the country through World War II. With a huge grin on his face, he cheered up the American public when few others could.

In addition to documenting his remarkable accomplishments as a leader, author Kathleen Kudlinski also touches on Franklin's private life. We learn that he was afraid of fire because he couldn't run from it, he exercised for hours so that he would be able to do what was required of him as President, and though his leg braces hurt him terribly, he never said a word or complained. Franklin founded the March of Dimes and his support helped hundreds of polio victims. By the end of his third term in office, Franklin grew tired and terribly ill, but he still chose to run for President again because his country needed him.

Kudlinski brings Franklin Delano Roosevelt to life, giving him a real face, heart and smile.

Editorial Review

Product Description
"The only thing we have to fear is fear itself nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance. In every dark hour of our national life a leadership of frankness and vigor has met with that understanding and support of the people themselves which is essential to victory. I am convinced that you will again give that support to leadership in these critical days."
--FDR, from his First Inaugural Address

Franklin Delano Roosevelt followed in the footsteps of the political career blazed by his cousin (and uncle by marriage), President Theodore Roosevelt. Beginning with local politics, he went on to serve a stint in Washington, then became governor of New York, and then won the presidency. His was a charisma similar to that of TR, but derived from his Delano side. His sunny disposition carried him through many trials, including disabling paralysis. As president his was a fearsome task, with two principal thrusts restoring hope to an America mired in the Great Depression and leading the nation to victory in the Second World War.

FDR became an American icon. The hundreds of photos in Historic Photos of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, from the collections of the FDR presidential library, portray him throughout his life and career, revealing a presidency marked by the twin struggles for economic recovery and military victory. FDR's life in pictures, published here in striking black and white, captioned and with introductions, is sure to enthrall every reader interested in the biography of this renowned American leader. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars A photographic biography of FDR
My parents, who grew up as very poor children in the teeth of the Great Depression, held FDR in high regard.However, they did not share in the general worship of FDR by some of their friends. For my parents' friends FDR was more than a President, even more than a Hero.He was a kind of savior to them who inspired them, provided work to their fathers, and provided food that they were often ashamed to eat.My parents recognized the leadership FDR showed, and were grateful for some of the programs, but the idea that the government could provide everything for everybody seemed absurd to them.

As I grew up and read and began formulating my own ideas, I began to question the orthodox view of FDR held of these friends.I remember at one gathering of my parents' friends, a couple of us teenagers brought up some views that questioned the view of FDR as the savior of the nation.Wow, what a reaction!(Again, not from my parents, but their friends.)Later in life I met families for whom FDR was an unalloyed devil and if you had anything remotely positive to say about FDR it generated a similarly explosive reaction.Interesting stuff.

Regardless of your views of FDR, there is no question that he was the most influential president of the 20th century, even more than Reagan whose dominance seems so great because he was more recent.This very interesting volume provides a couple of hundred photographs of FDR from his boyhood through his funeral.I enjoyed the way the book did not center on his three and a part terms as president, but gave us many photographs that are not commonly seen.It is the private man we see here even more than the man in office (though there are plenty of those, too).They are printed in large format and allow the reader to linger over them and notice very interesting detail.

As usual in this fine series from Turner Publishing, the captions add valuable information about the photograph and the few pages of information that form chapter headings add just enough helpful information without getting in the way of the photographs.

This is an especially nice addition to the library of anyone interested in FDR, American presidents, or general American history.

Book Description
Franklin Delano Roosevelt was one of the best and most influential presidents in U.S. history. Successfully guiding the stricken nation through the Great Depression and World War II, FDR also forever changed the office of the President of the United States and the future course of American politics. The scion of a wealthy upstate New York family, and cousin to President Theodore Roosevelt, Franklin Roosevelt was beloved by ordinary Americans and reviled by the elite as a class traitor for his New Deal policies. Here, FDR's life from childhood to midlife struggle with crippling polio to his death in office in 1944 is detailed, offering both personal and public perspectives. Starting with his privileged prep school and Harvard upbringing, readers follow this masterful politician's development as New York senator and Assistant Secretary of the Navy during World War I. During a brief retreat from the public eye, Roosevelt is struck by polio and regroups personally and professionally. Next comes his triumphant return to national politics and his election to president in 1932. The pivotal years during which he was elected president an unprecedented four times during the Depression and World War II round out the final third of the book. An annotated bibliography and index conclude the work. ... Read more
