Roger Daniels is the Charles Phelps Taft Professor Emeritus of History at the University of Cincinnati. His many books include Prisoners without Trial: Japanese Americans in World War II.
"An unparalleled portrait. Written with verve, refreshingly free of
jargon, and deftly weaving acute analysis into clear narrative, it
manages both to tell the remarkable story of the most influential
president since Lincoln while conducting an ongoing conversation
with historians and biographers who have come before."--Max Paul
Friedman, author of Rethinking Anti-Americanism: The History of an
Exceptional Concept in American Foreign Relations
"A deeply researched and finely crafted biography and history of
the greatest American president of the twentieth century. . . . In
these times, when FDR's and our parents' and grandparents' memory
and legacy are under siege, we should all read Daniels's new work
and consider what we need to do today."--Harvey J. Kaye, author of
The Fight for the Four Freedoms: What Made FDR and the Greatest
Generation Truly Great
"This is a huge and important account of FDR's presidency, based on
a prodigious amount of work, largely in the public record, in
newspapers, memoirs, and related materials, but with close
attention to all of the relevant secondary literature."--Allan M.
Winkler, author of Franklin D. Roosevelt and the Making of Modern
America
