‘;A brilliant full-length portrait of Franklin Roosevelt the politician’the first in an award-winning two-volume biography (The Christian Science Monitor). Franklin Delano Roosevelt was the longest serving president in United States history, reshaping the country during the crises of the Great Depression and World War II. But before his ascension to the presidency, FDR laid the groundwork for his unprecedented run with decades of canny political maneuvering and steady consolidation of power. In this remarkable New York Timesbestselling biography, Pulitzer Prizewinning historian James Mac Gregor Burns traces FDR’s rise and the peculiar blend of strength and cunning that made him such a uniquely transformative figure. Weaving together lively narrative and impressive scholarship, Burns reconstructs his youth and education at Groton and Harvard, his relationships with his cousins Theodore and Eleanor, his immersion in New York State politics, and his rise to national prominence, all the way through his first two terms as president, which saw the historic New Deal take hold and the drumbeats of World War II begin. Originally published in 1956, The Lion and the Fox was among the first studies of Rooseveltand it remains a landmark record of his ambitions, talents, and flaws. Hailed by the New York Times as ‘;a sensitive, shrewd, and challenging book’ and by Newsweek as ‘;a case study unmatched in American political writings, ‘ Burns’s stunning achievement is the life story of a fascinating political figure.
