Who was Franklin Roosevelt? -- Growing up in Hyde Park -- Meeting Eleanor -- Running for office -- Facing a crisis -- Struggling to walk -- Becoming president -- Living in the White House -- Going to war -- Saying good-bye.
Although polio left him wheelchair bound, Franklin Delano Roosevelt took office during the Great Depression and served as president during World War II. Elected four times, he spent thirteen years in the White House. How he led the country through tremendously difficult problems, much like the ones facing America today, makes for a timely and engrossing biography.
