This biography of former First Lady and 20th century icon Eleanor Roosevelt details the rise of a driven young woman who, hoping she'd found love in her marriage to Franklin Delano, instead discovered a potent political partnership. Publisher’s weekly calls the book "compulsively readable" and a "must" for American history buffs.
