Description

Winner of the Pulitzer for History, No Ordinary Time is a chronicle of one of the most vibrant and revolutionary periods in US history. With an extraordinary collection of details, Goodwin weaves together a number of storylines—the Roosevelts' marriage and partnership, Eleanor’s life as First Lady, and FDR’s White House and its impact on America as well as on a world at war. Goodwin melds these into an intimate portrait of Eleanor and Franklin Roosevelt and of the time during which a new, modern America was born.
